According to my ds, 7.40am must reach school and lessons start at 8.15am. Dismissal time is, imho, erratic!!.

\"meiah\" or \"JonC\", check with you, so would the boys finish quite late every weekday? Or only on the 2 CCA days?

Also as additional info for an earlier post for mep, to qualify, need min grade 3 practical and theory. If not, need to go for audition. Even with min grades, may also be asked to go for audition.

\"meiah\" - last year, to apply for MEP, did the application form ask for \"Personal Statement\"? This year's had, and I was like :scratchhead: ... apply for elective also need to write \"personal statement\", like for DSA. Aiyoh. Totally scratch-head. My ds in the end just wrote 2 sentences and couldn't be bothered with anymore \"padding\" - don't get in, then don't care lor.

Based on that, it sounds good. Haha, but then yah - depends on CCA. I thought it's Mon/Fri, but I also thot it starts pretty late, so if classes end 1.40pm, then they would have quite a number of \"free\" hours unless they go home and come back again.

All different CCA day/time should also be available to your DS.


But forgot is given during orientation or during registration.

Well most students will take their lunches at school in the interval between lessons and CCAs.

What does the sec 1 has to bring? Water bottle, $$ for tea break. Need to bring writing materials?

[llbros545]

I think just bring for good measure, in case it is required.

PE Name label - there is a space where we can write the name . What kind of pen to use? Will it easily be washed off when laundered?
