Dear Parents,


Would like to have a brief understanding how much should be consider \"appropriate\" for your DD's pocket monies?? Should you give it on a weekly basis or daily?? Cheers...

I give my gal $5 a day, $25 a week every Monday. Just FYI…

[GLORYmum]

me too. i give my girl $5 a day for recess and lunch. She would usually have some left by the end of the week.

I give my girl $20 per week and pack snack for her recess. This is an increase of 100% of her primary school allowance.

[BP2013]

Mmmm… looks like $4~$5 seems to be the appropriate number.

But of course this is considering both recess and lunch allowance.

DD stays back three/four times a week, and she has been making do with $20/week allowance since Sec 1, and usually have some money left by end of week.


This $20 does not include payment for class funds, and other adhoc collection of money. She will tell me when she needs to pay for such items and I will pass the money to her.

DD received 2 letters last week.


1. 中学成语速学 - Every Mon morning for 10 lessons
Apparently started yesterday so she has missed the first lesson. Anyone attended it? Contemplating if we should register for the remaining 9 lessons, would appreciate any feedback if you/your dd has attended it.

2. Subscription to iThink & Discovery Channel Magazine.
Are they useful in your view?

Thanks.

Hey would like catch your view on "should we let our dd keep all their red packet??". Cheers.
