My thinking is to just let the kids choose the CCA they like cos it's not as easy as it seems to use CCA as a DSA tool. 1st, whether which CCA can be used as DSA depends on the Sec Sch of ur choice, different Schs hv different niche. 2ndly, for DSA into reputable Sch, ur achievement in CCA must be stellar eg. Win national championship etc. even then there's no guarantee that it will be successful.


My view is that in Sch the kids can't choose to study the subjects they like, they can't choose the teachers n classmates, the only thing they can choose in Sch (other than food) is CCA. so why not let them choose and not worry abt DSA.

Lock, I fully agree with you. My son chose handball last year as his first choice. After a trial test, he got in but his friend did not. He was so thrilled that he got in. Till now, he is still enjoying his cca.

Silver Horse,

thanks, I tried to contact Ms Kavitha but she told me to choose according to kids choice as well though I still think that my DD can do good in many CCAs so which one to put first? In case one os preferred over another to get into secondary why cant I just put the one at choice 1?

For the first day of school, it was very annoying to get up before 6 am to send her to school but hope to get used to it. Some more her teacher told her not to sleep in afternnoon even if 'MOM' say sleep. also dont sleep so can get used to the CCA days when they will come back by 5 pm :(.

Shu, they wont' nap in the afternoon cos there'll be lots of homework. No time to nap. my son gets up at 530am, bus comes at 555am... he goes to bed at 9pm. For ISR and CCA, it ends at 5pm. by the time he gets home, its 6pm!

So, dun worry about your DD. She'll get used to the new schedule.

As for the CCA, go over the list with yr DD and see what she would like to join. Do make some choices cos she might not get into the one she chose. Good luck.

Hi ttyh, I think he can change but must write in? I ever asked my son and he said \"can\" ! I dun know whic cca have extra points, you may have to ask Ms Kavitha.

My ds 1st choice is handball. I hope he can get in. Is there a specific skill they are looking at?

No specific skills, but the instructor will ask him to go through a minute of throwing balls at him or the target.

Rulang does not hv soccer. My ds likes soccer too, the closest he cld get is handball which he will be putting as his 1st choice. I really hope he can get in.

P1 no need to choose CCA yet but Rulang has a few enrichment classes like violin, Chinese orchestra, robotics, skipping which you can enrol ur kid in.
