If I may, to add on:
Ronaldo, HM Son all not born rich but look where there are now, hehe. Yes rich will always have their advantage but we should live life, let our children enjoy their youth, play the sports they love or excel at what they do best. Some of them realise their potential in school, some much later in life.
Please know the strength of your child and what they like best. Looking forward to exciting updates for DSA 2024, especially the open houses and other sharing.
The approach, some call it by the name “self- actualisation”.
Young students’ characters will change with times. All of us will change with times too. Nothing stays the same. It is true most students do not have rich parents to build them stadium. It is also true most students will have a very decent life in singpore after going thru local education system , down the path that best suit their aptitudes.
So to me it’s ok to pursue their current dreams, as long as it does not cost them “an arm or leg”. -

Hi parents, I tried searching in this forum for Visual Arts DSA / AEP, not much. I am interested to let my son try for VS DSA Aesthetics. Saw their IG, pretty interesting to have an inner view: https://www.instagram.com/vsaep?igsh=NjJleXF6ejVneHlu -

Hi, just wondering what are the chances of being successful for Leadership DSA (CHIJ St Nicks), if my child is holding the position of Lead NE ambassador? She’s involved in many school wide activities, such as being emcee for various school events, being 1 of the 2 in the whole school to be selected for interview with Minister during school visits, and also responsible with sharing current affairs to the school.
Academics wise, I don’t think she can score in the low single digit, she is somewhere between AL 9-12, and also not in the prefectorial board.
Thank you! 🙏🏻 -
I don't think anyone can advise on the odds & chances but I would suggest a few things:
1 - going to CHIJ SN open house (good chance to find the teachers and ask the questions you have)
2 - speaking with your child's teachers on her plans for DSA (most of them would be very supportive this one I am sure)
3 - start compiling her activities and include anything and everything that would demonstrate her skills in the said category
AL 9 to 12 are great scores! Good luck!MYE\" post_id=\"2130047\" time=\"1709345989\" user_id=\"122046:

A few years ago, DD's classmate got in by DSA leadership. Her classmate was a head prefect in her primary school. She was subsequently elected as president of SNGS student council in her Y3. Another girl coincidentally from the same primary school (also DSA student) was elected as VP of the student council. Both are very strong academically but beyond school results, the ability to articulate and present yourself well during the panel interview is very crucial. I think your girl stands a good chance. No harm trying.
