Raffles Institution (Year 1-4)

Every activity outside school should have come with a letter to parents (for information & consent)… Even an SYF rehearsal at SOTA needed parents’ acknowledgement & consent…


Perhaps, the hike/camp was not compulsory and only those boys who had opted to go were given consent forms… Your DS might not have opted to go initially, but changed his mind later… That could be the reason why he was not given the consent form…

May I suggest that you check with the Teacher-in-charge of the CCA to seek further clarification, so as to prevent any future misunderstanding…

It's program by Raffles Parents Association (RPA). It's to ensure that the registration is done legitimately and not by anyone unrelated. Anyway, I saw that its fully taken less than half an hour later as only limited to 17 parents.

I think its for Year-1 parents only.. My DS is in Year-2 this year.. I didn't get any email invitation so far..

However, I don't remember getting it last year too, when DS was in Year-1.. Maybe, I don't remember correctly..
