[quote=\"DoDo Bird\"]May I ask if the transport to moelc is only to the Newton centre or both the Newton and the Bishan centre?

Both. There are students who take languages other than French and Japanese, which are only offered in Bishan.

:thankyou:
Am I correct to say that since Thursday is \"HCI 3rd Lang day\" so if I am to change the center from Newton to Bishan it has to be on a Thursday to get the bus HCI cater for ?
If I change the 3rd lang day from Thursday to Friday I've to find my way to Bishan ??[/quote]It's best to stick to Thursday as the school will not plan any Pgm to clash with 3rd Lang. Also, Friday is CCA day, so Friday is out for other activities.

Hi,


Can I check on the LEP programme? Is it beneficial and worth signing up for or with the various CCAs, kids will be too busy?

thanks

It would be a good programme if your child is interested in Chinese culture or has aptitude to literature (English or Chinese).

It will only take up 1.5 hours per week so it would be not much of a problem unless ur DS takes 3rd Language too.

These are the classes for students in the Science and Maths Talent Programme. So they have enriched Science and Maths curriculum.

[/quote]My son is JC1 this year. During his time, there are students in SMTP who didn't take Bio. Bio is optional. The difference is at the end of the year, they have to sit for higher science (eg. higher physics, higher chem, higher bio) and higher maths papers besides the sciences and maths paper. I am not sure if there are any changes, during his time, structure IP classes are the \"Q\" class.

Thank You VeryKSMum for letting me know Friday is CCA day. I have 2 kids taking 3rd Lang in different center and differnt day so was trying to fit both into the same day so that I can pick them up together.
