Poly term officially commences 2moro. He is looking forward to starting school. There are some lecture notes uploaded...so he read up during the past few days. Other than the 2 weeks in MI, he has been having a good holiday. I'm shocked that he will have exams in end May...that's so soon :yikes:

Are they allowed to change CCA at the end of each year?

DD is doing a foreign language and if there is time conflict in the subsequent years, the priority will be the foreign language.

son just joined bowling as his 'PE'. it will be held for 10 weeks.
CCA is a different thing in the poly. i reminded him that the 1st year poly is crucial to build up GPA points, so don't get too busy with CCAs. he was so tired after school yesterday...facing the laptop for a long period during class.
