Hi jheng,
for fencing I assume same as other CCA, the school will conduct a trial selection.
perhaps to gauge yr footwork and sieve out those boys with potential
Boys who have been exposed to fencing def have an advantage.
But I am rather disappointed on the activities the school have planned for the fencing team. Rather inactive, team only took part in the national inter-school competition and nothing else. If you intend to groom yr boy in fencing, you will need to join some fencing clubs etc. -

Hi,
My DS will in be in Sec 3 next year, so far, no regret sending him to SJI.
Teachers are engaging, school are well organised, even the orientation is impressive.
The boys are developed holistically, well mannered, confident and not just pursuing academic excellence.
Schools also offered range of enrichment programmes etc
Need to put SJI as first choice if you need to appeal.
cheers ! -

RE: 2013 Request for Advice on Selecting Secondary School
Hi,
Do check out SJI, my DS is in Sec Two now,
so far very happy with the school.
Teachers are engaging and the boys are well mannered and confident.
Even the orientation is so well organised and school website are keep you informed of the various activities.
No regret sending DS there, school seems to be developing all-rounded boys not just pursuing academic excellence.

My DS got into the Sec 3 IB track and also the subject combination we want…so happy:)
JRLam: all sec 3 need to take chemistry with Physics or Bio if you are taking 2 science subjects.
Cheers !
