JC bags are the lightest of the lot. Most don't need textbooks. There is also something called \"the locker\".

The so called text books are super thick and heavy that no one is bringing them. It will take two bags to bring if want to bring. They are plied with lecture notes. The bag are lighter than in pri or sec schools

Every generation is a strawberry generation to the earlier ones. Our parents and grandparents lived through The Great Depression, Japanese Occupation, race riots and many more, so who are we to snidely comment that our children are strawberries when we are likewise strawberries in our parents and grandparents' eyes?

I do not agree. No doubt standards of living improve over generations. Hence endurance and resilience may be of different measures. However, we should let our children be exposed to some 'hardship' which is not even deemed as hard in the past. Do not over-protect and make them strawberries.
Speak for yourself. I ain't no strawberry in the eyes of my parents and grandparents but a resilient apple.

I don't care if you call yourself a resilient apple or redoubtable orange, we are not an orchard here.

It is interesting that a thread for a new IPJC has so many distracting posts making snide remarks and comments while trying to avoid the key issues; firstly, there has been a series of mistakes committed by MOE that has resulted in parents being unhappy. Secondly, the lack of clarity and information leave parents in the dark and uncertain as well as worried.

If the affected parents choose to vent their frustration in an open forum using words, everyone can just make an effort to empathise, be sensitive and not make negative comments unnecessarily.

I won’t say they have made a / many mistakes. It is just unfortunate that a series of unforeseen circumstances has taken place and taken as a whole it looks bad to those who xxxxx it. It happens everywhere all the time.


Knowing Singaporeans are kiasu, kiasi, kiabo, and kpkb in the slightest hint of deviation - they don’t dare put out another statement until every issue is crystal clear. Am sure their higher up have briefed them to shut up unless new foolproof solutions are tested and proven.
