      My boy didnt want to try buying food that day.

      after got home he requeted me to make him lunch box when he starts school :S
      I think I will give him $2 daily… just in case he needs to buy some extra food etc… think I will also get him a money box and ask him to save up the leftover money daily.

          Hi Shugarhigh, its stated in the information booklet tt was given on orientation. Page 14. They tell u first 3days need to bring wat items for teacher to keep.

          Other than that is just the daily items to bring everyday.

            did any parents tried the food from the canteen? my boy tried to buy a plate of fried rice which cost $1. The rice is cold, hard and chewy. i feel the quality of food at St gab is really bad. Previously we tried the pasta. the fries given is way too salty! i wonder how are the boys going to eat the food there…


            Do u think we can feedback to the school?

                Oh really? We didn't manage to try much of the canteen food... My mom tried the longtong from the malay stall and said they put little salt coz not much taste which we both thought was a good thing! hahah... other than that my boy just had a chicken patty and a Milo from the snack stall.

                I guess can feedback to the school with regards to salty food or food standards. I know some schools even restrict sale of certain foods and drinks (fried foods/sweet drinks) to be on sale one day of the week only.

                  i feel sgps food too expensive. my boy bought 3pcs of nuggets for $1. $0.90 for milo. seriously this is over priced for primary school. I checked with other schools and they dont sell so expensive. any parents here in psg? how do we go about to feedback these kind of issues?

                    Wanna know the bag load for p1
                    Looking at bags now, but looking at the books needed to bring to sch for teacher to keep, not sure if we need ergonomic bags or not.. Eyeing on one, super expensive 😞

                      hmm but I don’t see it stated in the hand book if they are allowed to leave these books in school all the time? Hmmm, or eventually they will have to carry it up and down daily after the first week?

                        Will see how after a week of school then we'll decide if should really need an ergonomic bag.

                        At least 1kg for an ergonomic bag without books.. 😞
