7 Jan 2023 - NYP Open House

Jerlene will be taking her "O" level exam this year.  She will have to decide which paths to take for further studies beyond secondary school.  There are Polytechnics and JCs open house these few days and we brought her to NYP open house to take a look.  It's actually quite near to our place.

The moment we entered the campus, both Jerlene and Javier were amazed by the surrounding.  It's so much bigger than their current schools' campus.  In addition, it looks new and architecturally very beautiful.  Another thing that "stroked" them is that there are several cafes, food courts and convenience stores within the campus.

Jerlene is interested in Digital Media and Animation related courses.  As such we went straight to the relevant campus tour and got to know more about the course.  Jerlene was very excited to hear that the course has no exam.  The grades are totally based on project works.  Having said that, the entry requirement for the course is not any easier than that of JC.  We were also told that for the past decades, the animation and motion design of NDP were actually created by students of NYP.  

After we got all the details we need from the open house, we drove to Casuarina Prata House for lunch. Monkeys were roaming along the corridors.
