      Good Morning everyone!!!


      DS received invitation to HCI Step Up Leadership camp in Oct. 2D1N at HCI boarding school. Any of your DS also going? Think is meant to be for those DSA to HCI. I heard some on WL also gets it. But some on CO do not. So, don't know what is the selection criteria.

      DS received the invite from his Form Teacher too. Will let him join since it's after his PSLE and think it'll be a great experience for him too.

      DS is going too! He's so excited about this. 😄

        Yesterday DS received an email from his teacher who requested the pupils to fill up an online form by 16 Sept for their choice of secondary schools via DSA. I clicked on the link of the form and did not see any title or description, so I am very confused about the request. Is the form a survey or a replacement of the preference form that is supposed to submit after PSLE during 22-28 Oct? Can any parents share if your DS also receive such email? What should the official preference form look like?




        The PSLE preference form will only be available through your ds primary school about 22 October not so much earlier. The form you have received could be a survey from the primary school. If you primary school is affiliated to any secondary school then they could be anxious to know your choice. :evil:[/quote]

        Thank you, GLORYmum. I don’t think the primary school is affiliated to any secondary school. So it doesn’t matter very much if one does not to fill up the form given by the teacher. The more important is not to forget submitting the official preference form by 28 Oct.

          Where the invite from? Direct from HCI or decided by form teacher?
          DS got CO but didn't receive any invite...

              Maybe the camp meant for kids the school 'considered' have leadership skills vs CO/WL of DSA..
