Hiaz .. my boy is still struggling to find his comfort zone in the new environment. Not sure is it because he is 1 of the non-affiliated boys in his class (his class has >50% of students from affiliated schools), he has yet to make any new friendZekezachzoom:
[quote=\"pixiedust\"]My son enjoyed the first few days. He said he loves his new school :boogie: I hope it continue this way.
My DS also enjoys his new school too. He has been taking bus back from school and feels proud in his uniform;) though the journey back home takes about an hour but with his new friends with him, it doesn't feel that long as per him.He is quite an easy-going boy but he said he is older now so finds it harder to make new friends!
Really hope that he can make some friends during next week's activites, then he will be less 'depressed' .... :sad:[/quote]
Don't worry, boys in general warmed up pretty easily...esp after fun activities. I am sure it will be better from next week. -
yeah, JRLam, hope your boy made lots of new friends already and more during the orientation camp.

Day 2 of Skill Test & Trials follows the published schedule. Day 1 they do admin stuff, listen to CCA presentations and also do the asethetic tests.Skill Test & Trials is for 2 days right? How come the website only shows 1 day schedule? How is the school going to conduct the canoeing/sailing trial in school?

Hi, may I know what do they do during the 2 days? My son has slight eye infection, not sure if he is suitable to attend the camp... will bring him to consult doctor later but will be helpful if I know what to expect (what activities will they be engaged in etc) for the next 2 days to decide...
Thanks! -
Last night I was very impressed with the school, the way they organise the orientation camp for the students and parents. Everything went very smoothly. My son was in high spirit at the end of the evening and has so much to say of the camp. It is unusual of him to be so chatty. I can see he feels very much at home in SJI. What’s more, I am pleased that prayer is always said before any presentation, the way a Catholic school should. I am really happy for him.

I am sorry this may be too late but if your DS is attending the camp, it will be a very memorable one for him. I was there last night and too was impressed with how the orientation camp was being organised especially when the seniors pinned the badges on the sec 1. I can feel that my DS is in good hands.My DS though tired but was in high spirit tooZekezachzoom:

Any parents can share how the school conducts CCA selection?

hi
is SJI and SJI International PE attire the same? -
This is the first time I attended parents’ orientation in a secondary school but I must say SJI has done a great job in organizing the orientation camp. The bonding amongst the boys (S1 or S3) is so strong that anyone would feel a great sense of belonging. My boy is an introvert but he thoroughly enjoyed the camp and made some new friends which surprises me. I’m confident that our boys will have an enriching and fulfilling time at SJI during their stay.
