Hi, can I check if students can attend any CCA trials or they only do so if they are short-listed?


Thanks

Hi Yum Yum,

my understanding from DS is that the boys have to go for the CCA trials that they're interested in. They'll not be considered for the CCA (except for Uniform Group) if they do not attend any trial for that CCA as this show that they're not interested in the CCA. Some CCA even take into consideration the number of trials that the child attend. For eg, if the boy attend the trials a few times for the same CCA, that show the boy is really interested in it.

Dear YumYum, the Sec 1 students can go for any trial, but should quickly go check out the CCA trial dates posted on the school website. Some CCAs may be completing their selection trials soon, eg, Squash’s last trial is today.

Hi Megacat,
We're all 1st time going to this parents' symposium but I'm guessing the purpose is to get to meet our DS's consortium director & Ass Director, to know their expectations from the kids and parents, meeting our DS form teachers and probably respective subject teachers and any doubts that parents may ask.
But parent Chandelier did encourage us to attend although slides may be uploaded in the school websites.

So it's fine to be late than not to attend. I believe many parents will come in much later.

My ds is in 1-A1. Can I check with fellow parents if there are any assignment (written or reading) given to the class? A bit concerned as my son has been attending CCA trials, coming back late & being very relaxed as he said that he has no assignments.


Can I also know the colour requirement of the subject files as ds is not very certain.

Thanks alot!

Same for my ds. Quite relaxed so far. He only had little CL homework. Maybe the teachers have not started the engine yet.

Oh, is there any colour requirement for the files? I don't remember seeing folders in the book list.

Will there be any test for term 1?
