                I'm sure the camp is important and fun and you'll benefit from it. If you miss the award presentation, MOE will still send you the check.

                Ok thanks πŸ™‚ but mine is organised by the rc...?

                Uh btw LDDS = Language, drama & debating society or sth similar is that correct?

                  If you decide to go to the camp fire, I am sure you can tell RC about it. If you decide to go to RC, I am quite sure you can ask RC to write you a letter to excuse from the camp fire.

                  I am quite sure nothing much will happen if you tell your teacher in charge to excuse from the camp fire. But I believe you will miss an experience never to be found again.

                    There r kids who like UG and put as first choice. I would think its a good training if boys choose UG like NCC or NPCC. Physically fit well prepare for NS πŸ™‚

                        After you kids gone for the test and trials, put in the 6 choices, and see which CCAs select them. Then you can try consider which one to choose. For my child, two CCAs selected her (exclude UG). Then from the two, we choose.
                        Some changes this year. Students get to go for trials for all CCAs. After which they will have to select 2 UG and 2 performing arts or sports. We don't get to know which CCA selected them yet.
                        Then the school will allocate them to respective CCAs.
                        The bad thing is you can't indicate which is your 1st choice between UG and performing arts /sports.
                        That's why some boys are upset that they are posted to dance and choir.
                        Hope that the school will change this next year to allow students to indicate their 1st choice.

                        Some students purposely perform badly during the trial for those CCA they dislike :idea:
