Secondary School CCA

Yes… the max is 100 hours. Therefore if you do 200 hours, there will not be any extra points.
My dd exceed the 100 hours too. She enjoys CIP. Some students may not know. Also, some schools organise CIP program so that the students can earn CIP points. These activities are sometimes compulsory. So, if you add your own activity plus the school organised CIP hours, you may add up alot. -

I really dun like those who just go for CIP activity for the sake of CIP hours!! Must be genuine to help right?? -
Hi Val,
Yes her CIP exceeds and we actually stop recording early Sec 3.
Not only her CIP exceeds, her CCA pts also exceeds. As she is in string ensemble, she has many performance, etc. She exceeds the pts when the school won the Gold w honours last year. Of course the max .... 5pts?? or something for that category??
I was quite bad to ask her to stop the performance this year, but she told me she enjoys and did it not for pts :). So though most sec 4 in her school stop CCA in Apr, she stops in July bcos of performances. I'm worried but will just let her do whatever she enjoys. After all, we all have only one chance to live in each age.....just enjoy

I wonder if you know her...... hahahaha..... -
Hi Lynn2010,
Haha, Im an active with Ground-Up Initiative. Does she help out there before? If yes, she might just know me -
No… she’s not.
Her CIP activity is church activity. School optional CIP activities. Early this year i heard about going to … Rainbow school or something but i’m not sure the status. This is a self initiated one with class & school mates. Not sure if she’ll get CIP pts but like i said she doesnt need any more CIP pts. -
Nonetheless, Strong CCA records are important!

However, CIP has 5 point cap, thats the downside…

Both should be as easy as each other. UG groups always very easy to get LEAPS points one. Though, NCC always sounds cooler than scouts
