I informed the coach who informed the teacher in charge. That was end of last year when I decided to with DS from his CCA.

It is not compulsory for student to have CCA in primary school although it is strongly encourage. There are so many DSA nowadays and CCA is one of the many considerations by the selection panel.

I believe most of you have read in the letter informing us that all school bus will pick up the children 10 minutes later during the trial starting next week. Do check with the bus driver. When I asked him, he told me to come down at around the same time. He said at most 5 minutes. The 10 minutes given by the school is just a guide and it is not practical to pick every child 10 minutes later. He said that it might take longer to reach the school as the traffic outside the school builds up. He wants to reach the school at the usual time to avoid the traffic. So if that is the case, it doesn’t make much different to my DS then. He still has to wake up at the usual time.

Hi, parents of P2. At P3, are the kids grouped by results or just random mix? My ds tells me that his teacher said they will be grouped by results. However when I asked at PTM, treacher said its random for the boys to make more friends. Anyone can shed some light??

As a future Maris Stella parent I am curious about the trial. Are they looking to change the school hours?
