      [quote=\"jesschan\"]Has anyone tried using the school wifi? My son said that it doesn't seem to work...


      Don't rely on sch wifi - weak signals quite common occurrence.

      Is password needed to use the school wifi ?[/quote]Yeah, I think they were given a password but still very weak signals. wifi will be quite useful for him to check on bus arrival times, whatsapp etc.. as I do not give him a data plan.

        Hi,


        can anyone share about the UF in HCI?
        I read from RI thread that the some of the UF groups in RI can be quite slack. How about HCI? Is it tough & tiring?
        I think the uniform groups meet only twice a week. And looking at their achievements, they seemed to be doing quite well too.

          8228,

          DS has a classmate who bring table tennis bat to school everyday to practise too. Maybe your DS & my DS are classmates. 😉

          Haha...maybe...

          Haha, my son also said his classmates bring table tennis bat to school, so he also started bring one to play with them during recess.[/quote]haha, in this case, our DSs could be classmates too!!!!! 😉
          If not, then the school is now blowing the \"table tennis wind\".... so many of them into table tennis!!!!!

            Same here, I did not give DS any data plan... Now considering whether I should be subscribing one for him. :scratchhead:
            But am also afraid he might use it for other purposes!!!!

                Subscribing to data plan will mean about $300-400 per annum. My son doesn't like to surf on phones, so data usage is low, not worth it in my opinion.

                  Apparently, the school does promote table tennis as a sports for all students. They even grade the sec ones last year on table tennis.
