CandyHeart: Thanks for the compliments! Chinese Os is considered by many in the school to be a very easy paper. Some of the stuff me and my friends did were memorising model phrases for compositions and learning the techniques to answering the various comprehension questions. Oh do not be shocked by your CL results in school as the standard of the school’s paper is way higher than the actual O CL. B4s for prelims can end up as A1s in Os for CL. Another tip is to read the compo question very carefully, don’t fall into any traps or you might risk writing out of point. Teachers prepare students with lots of work and CL intensive a week before the actual exams.


Oh and I had Chinese tuition in Sec 1 but not anymore afterwards because time did not permit.

Robotics cannot be a main CCA. It is a club CCA.

Can the students join a 2nd cca (altough didn’t indicate in form) after comfortably settled in the main cca?

I know for a fact that has been done and can be done.

llbros545: regarding NCC (air), yr 1, friday training, yr 2 fri + saturday training. what about yr 3 & 4?


Thanks for taking the time to answer the questions posted here!

Oh the Saturday trainings in Sec 2 are only for quite a short period of time. In Year 3 and 4, if the cadet is selected for competitions, there will be extra trainings too on just about any other day, such as aeromod or PDS. However, it is much lesser as students will be busier. And a point to note is that Wednesday is make-up training day and shooting day. So, if trainings cannot be conducted on Friday, it will be moved to Wednesday. In sec 1 and 2, cadets also have to go for shooting training at Safra periodically. Also, cadets might be required to go for courses such as Energy Conservation course or kayaking course spanning about 2-3 days long per course during holidays.

Any of you attended the PTM yesterday evening?


From the presentation, looks like the school has got very dedicated teachers.

The principal said that some of those that enter with psle t score of 240+ got 7 or 8 A1s during the O levels, whereas some with > 250 did so so only.

Looks like ds is in good hands. The rest will have to depend on ds himself.

Yep, as a student, I can safely say CHS has one of the most dedicated, experienced and prepared teachers in the non-IP scene, if not in Singapore.


The teachers go all out to assure you get an A in your Os. Morning remedials, recess remedials (for the weaker ones), after school remedials, weekend extra classes etc.
