My boy is using Dr Kong, so far so good! Lighter than some of his classmates' bags.

The children must be having FUN at GESS today!

Thumbs up for the school to arrange them to GESS to celebrate National Day together. Heard some of the children will be performing too.

We received the Administration Day letter too. 14 Oct in the morning. Looks like the school is staggering this to manage the crowd

TQ for the kind advices on PE shirts.


Very glad that the school is staggering the timings.

Anyone knows if we can order the books online and get them delivered to doorstep?

Are the kids allow to keep the books in the lockers?

My son only likes the LEGO ergo bags. For me, weight is very important. Does not make sense if a child has to carry a bag that weighs 1kg+ w/o books (even though the sales will tell you it’s okay, weight is well distributed like those in hiking bags bla bla…). The LEGO bag seems to be lighter compare to other brands. For ergo bags, we have to ensure the kids put the books in a certain manner to distribute the weight. Also, essential that they buckle and tighten the straps. IF NOT, they will still be slouching. I will not be buying yet. Will buy after I get to see the size of his textbooks and files.

Still cannot decide whether to let my son take the school bus. Was told that pick up time at 630am which i find too early. However, reaching home time at 2pm seems reasonable (I wonder if it’s really possible to reach home by 2pm by school bus?).
