Ok, maybe let me elaborate more regarding the terms CA1 , CA2 and EOY in DHS.

CA 1 - Period fr Jan to May (before June sch holidays) which includes
Level tests, pop quizzes, assignments and projects for 1 st term
Also includes pop quizzes, assignments and common tests for 2nd term.
All these will have different weightage where common tests carry heavier weightage.
Total : 25 % for Sec 1 and Sec 2, 20% for Sec 3 and Sec 4

We wont know the overall grades for CA1 till we get the dossier (report bk) juz before JUNE holidays.

For Mid yr exams, they are known as Common Tests......(where the pri sch termed them as SA1 but in DHS, it is not called SA1 )

CA2 - Period fr July to Sept ( before Sept sch holidays) again includes
Common tests, pop quizzes and assignments ( normally no projects assigned during 3 rd term)
This is a very short term but still stands at 25%.
Total : 25 % for Sec 1 and Sec 2, 20% for Sec 3 and Sec 4

Lastly, the EOY ( end of yr examinations), the most heavy weightage.
50% for Sec 1 and Sec 2, 60% for Sec 3 and Sec 4.

(Hopes the above helps to clarify some confusion. initially, i too, got confused by the CA1 terms )

Subject: Breakfast Dialogue Session

Dear Dunmanian,

We would like to encourage you to watch a documantary this Sunday, 3 March on Channel News Asia at 10.30pm.

This programme features Mdm Sim Sin Sin, an alumnus of Dunman High School. Currently she is the director of Secret Recipe where many of us have frequented over the years. There will be an interview with her on her new restaurant, Laksania, which hires a group of very special people to work in the store.

She has indeed exhibited the true spirit of a Dunmanian in Caring, Serving and Leading.

Mdm Sim has been invited to have a breakfast dialogue session with you at the end of this term (15 March). Please do watch the documentary to have a better understanding of her in the event you are selected for the dialogue session.

Regards,

ICT & CR department

Hi everyone, hope everything is running smoothly for all…


I am looking for Maths tuition for my child (yr 2). Does anyone know of a good tuition centre, and which tutor to look out for?

Or a good private tutor to recommend?

By FTW_Dunmanian: on the first day of school there was a briefing regarding this. out of the whole level, abt 10 ppl dun take hcl in primary school


if your son fails hcl in sec 1 and 2, he will have to take normal chinese from sec 3-4 and take o level chinese. when he proceeds on to jc, he will have to continue taking chinese too while the hcl ppl dunnid to :roll:[/quote]









Reply:No lah, only ppl who pass the O Level HCL exam can skip chinese lessons in JC....... :imcool:

Btw the teachers in DHS give tuition too; just email them with the dhs mail account for \"tuition\" (It's FREEEEEE )
