Some schools allow students to change CCA at the beginning of Sec 2. However, doing so may affect your CCA bonus points. I don't think MOE has any policy prohibiting students from changing CCAs. Please speak to your teachers.

For Secondary schools, seems like each Cca minimum is, twice a week

Yes. Uniform groups meets once a week, so does Astronomy Club, Math Olympaid, Media Club (to name a few in some schools).

Actually I am more for the kids to be active in cca and sch activities in SEC sch otherwise sch life is very boring right if day in day out just study? Also when they leave the sch, these are memories or friendship or school pride they bring away rather than the results or muggings during the period.

Agree with you, Imp75.

When kids are engaged in CCAs, it helps them relieve fr study pressures. In particular the sweating fr active spots helps kids perspire & generate endorphins which in turn help them study & concentrate better.

I’m more assured when they spend time in school compound with peers & teachers supervision then having too much time outside roaming & exposed to unhealthy frds or activities. When they’ve busy with CCAs, less time to chat or game on gadgets which saps too much of energy & eye power! JMO

For uniform group like Scouts, do they meet on Sat?
