      Just received call from RI coach informing me that my son received a confirmed offer. Presenting CO letters and Principal's talk at 9 am this Saturday (26 August).Best of luck to all.


      taurbear:
      SOTA results out on portal! We got CO!
      fushiavl:
      Same here - CO for Visual Arts - yeah!!
      MrBin:
      Got CO from RI ( Sports DSA), informed by PE/CCA head
      Oldgal:
      DD managed to get CO for visual arts as well. So happy, now no need to stress so much over PSLE. Actually only subject DD is weak in is mother tongue and she is really weak at it. So thank God there is DSA, otherwise it will be so sad to be penalised just for second language alone.
      miiniworld:
      should have believed my daughter when she said sota results out on 23rd. then dont have to keep waiting. πŸ˜›
      we have got CO for lit arts. πŸ™‚
      :congrats: to all!

      Can someone pls tell me if DS is supposed to attend the Principal talks? Thanks!

      is there info on principal's talk? i find it so strange/surreal to find out that results are out, on a forum and not through the school... πŸ˜„

              Received CO from SOTA for dance, but not sure if to accept it, DD loves dancing but heard the dancers' schedule are tough at SOTA, need to cope with IB schedule and dancers basically dance at least 11 hrs per week, school can end at 12am when there is performance or competition, this was told by a friend's hubby who was SOTA maths teacher. Also, understand SOTA now only allow one science at year 5 and 6, is it true?

                If there isn't advantages, why would parents send their DC to tuition lessons specially designed for gifted programm?

                Don't shoot me hor, but I read on the web before, natural gippers are smart but have behaviour issues, hence they are being grouped together. :? dont know how true is it?

                I think there are many misconceptions about GEP kids. To be fair, many geppers are prefects or CCA leaders in their primary schools, and are also largely responsible for winning competitions for schools.

                If one is \"veryscared\" about behaviour issues, then one has the choice not to send their children to schools like RGS, NYGH, RI or HCI, where there are many geppers!!

                Tks goodness, my DS is not interested in RI and HCI. Anyway, he has CO from 2 schools, so not \"veryscared\" liao. πŸ•Ί

                  double science for those able to manage... its a case by case basis from what i heard at the parents symposium
