The coach will be monitoring your performances to finalise the teams for the upcoming competition, so take every game seriously.

CCA Stand Down

Dear ELS Members,

Note that there will be no CCA for Scrabble this week (27/2) due to Common Test. However, there will be CCA for debaters (tentatively).

Scrabblers who have failed the previous test are to complete their punishment (4-letter word hooks) with the exception of Lucas who scored the highest points in one turn [IRISATED - 77 pts] among the winners in the previous Scrabble game and is therefore forfeited from the previous punishment only. This means the rest of you are to hand in 2 punishments on the whole of 4-letter word hooks by the next CCA Meeting (6/3).

And also, please note that from now onwards, you are to provide an MC every time you failed to attend CCA without a valid reason or you will be marked 'absent' on attendance.

Thanks and good luck for your common tests!

Regards,
Jun Khai
