Hi,is it compulsory for CCA for primary 1. Already I find the time is very tight for the girls hahhahahahahah.

CCA is only compulsory for p3 onwards. The cca choices for P1s P2s seems to be quite limited, for some cca, entry is thru invitation only. my girl only ballet in P1 and P2. P3 onwards she was selected for netball

P1 workload should be ok..wait till your kid is p3... :D... my girl is in P5 now.....drowning in homework everyday...:(

Oh carol73 you can stressing me on Primary 3 already
Now already my girl saying that she got sooooo many things to do hahhahahahahahah . . . . . well that is a student's life !

CCA is thru invitation only . . . . hmmmmmmmm. How come huh just curious only! :scratchhead:
Is it that the child must have some background like say for ballet.

Hi everyone,


I was recently "introduced" to the school during a BBQ session as I was set on my DD attending CHIJ (Katong) in 2014 for a while now. What now make me consider this school was the distance from our home in Pasir Ris. A lot more shorter, faster and easier than wriggling thru the katong/Martia road traffic every morning. Reading a lot on the forum, some good experiences and some bad. But overall, if distance was not a factor, which would you choose - CHIJ Katong Primary or CHIJ OLN?

I am most interested to hear about the values taught at OLN, how is the new principal, Ms Debra Saw, academic focus or lack thereof about Maths and Science. What about focus on Chinese?

Appreciate any advise.

Thanks.

F.I.T Party


My girl so excited over the F.I.T party where she stay back and hang out with her peers! So after school the girls need to take their lunch in the canteen? Need to pack some extra $$$ for her.

May I know if the P1 girls can take ballet and volin as CCA? What are the cost involved? Do they do RAD exam?


Is it consider as CCA from P3 onwards?

Thanks!

Hi momresource, I only know that for ballet they don’t do RAD exams for the other Australian exam.

Hi All,


I’m new here. My DD is going to register for Pri one this July 2013.
And we will be joining the school tour on 25 June 2013. anyone going?

I understand mostly are already mummy of CHIJ OLN. Could you provide me some update on their school workload? My DD is slow in her development, although had been sending her for classes. However, her English and maths is till lacking. Will the school be able to help her?

I’m a part time working mother, and willing to take part in school volunteer too, how do I join?

Thanks in advance.

Hi pin


I m a mummy of a P1 girl. I find the P1 homework look manageable.

U can join the Parent Support Group in the school once your girl is in the Sch. PSG needs Parents Volunteers hence they will be glad to ve you.

I believe the class teacher will do his/her best to help your child. However the ratio is 1 teacher:30 pupils, therefore home guidance, revision and supervision of your child's work is important to ensure that she is able to follow whatever she has been taught in Sch.

My girl enjoys going to OLN, think yours will too.
