My DD is Sec 3 this year. If I remember correctly during her Sec 1 Posting Registration, some of the students are already being \"identified\" based on the PSLE results for Maths, Science and Chinese individual subjects. They are only allowed to choose one subject and go through another selection test in Dec and they will be placed according to the subject talent development class if they qualified. Those who are keen for Music will go through audition provided the students met the minimum requirements like minimum Grade 3 in both practical and theory in ABRSM. Not sure this year S1 talent development classes are the same as last time. If you compare all S1 timetable, think 1BN, 1CR (Music talent development class based on the additional subject MuSP; but only a 10+ students in the class are in the Music talent development class), 1DL, 1EP and 1FG are all talent development classes.

can I ask about the use of phones in cchm? and how's today's orientation? I was hoping that the school will allow pupils to make friends and know their classes etc but it ended up only being able to buy stuff & leave :lightrod:

Phones can only be used during free time such as recess or after school. Teachers will confiscate if caught using during curriculum time. However, some teachers are less strict and will only warn the student to keep his or her phone.

can i know how much pocket money to give? Today is my boy first day in school and i gave him $3.. is that enough?

Too rush during the orientation day no time to check out the price of the food in canteen.

I think $3 is too little, about $5 should be sufficient.

My DS has graduated from CCHMS.


Handphones are acceptable in school but as one said, keep it away during lessons.

$3 is indeed too little especially for boys who have huge appetites. I give my DS $5 per day n its always not enuf.

Any ex-CCHMS student or parents whose daughter got into CCHMS 2016 through DSA using performing arts and HCL? May I know the COP? I am planning to send my daughter to CCHMS 207 through that path. Can someone share their challenges or advice on how to do it? Thanks.
