Does your boy join UG in CHS? Does it take up a lot of his time & is the training tough? How often do they have camping?

Didn't yours already select his CCA? No, mine doesn't join JG, but it's common for them to eat lunch at 3pm. *sigh*. -
the school have just modify the timetable, their lunch break is 12:25 to 13:10 in the new term, then continue lessons for S1…not sure about the rest.

Weekday (depending on which day their patrol prefers) is their patrol day - which the patrol gathers for small group training and the timings is flexible within the patrol.
Trainings are only stepped up before camps or competitions. Two weeks before end of year exams (one week for common tests) scout activities are stopped for revision.
However there is no common test schedule this term due to upcoming S'pore Youth Festival (hence no break this term) - for which the aesthetics CCA groups have been having almost daily trainings since day one of school; much worse than scouts. -
The student council just launched a new fb page - My 公教, Our Home … You can get up to date info and news there… pretty interesting… Can view the picture of the yet-to-be-constructed cafe and video of the ncc air freestyle drill in action there as well…

About the regular test thingy, here I would like to share about my three university friends who always get distinction in their exams even in the university.
Their secret, only 4 things to do, before teacher even start to teach that topic, they already (1) pre-study 1 round; when teacher first time teach, (2) they verified what they understand is correct compared to teacher and listen carefully things they cannot figure out during pre-study; when doing worksheets, (3) they enhanced their understanding; (4) they try to find out what fellow classmates school works problem and try help them to solve it, better understand the concept by gathering all the knowledge in order to deliver and articulate it.
Well, it’s every parents dream to have a kid like them.
CHS has high expectation of it’s Maths, as it has been a long tradition that the school and also their students are proud of their high standard of Maths. Maths is the only subject which can get perfect scores, secret is practice.
I think our kids, including mine, are over pampered, that is why our kids are seen to be always do not have as good results as the foreign students study here. But we also heard of our students (not referring to scholarships holders) who go overseas do well in overseas universities, why? No pampering parents there.
It’s like the baby butterfly need to break out by itself in order to be able to fly, it you give it a hand, it will never fly the remaining of it’s life. -

Not that true either. Overseas school curriculum different. Last time I had American Expat neighbours. The kids who are 2 years older than me had schoolwork that was easier than what I did in school! So to get them out of the house to play with me, I would help them along so they could finish faster and go play!But we also heard of our students (not referring to scholarships holders) who go overseas do well in overseas universities, why?
