My DS took the 13" MAC Book Air

The insurance previously for first kid macpro was on loss or damage I think. Cannot recall well. Maybe did not activate the insurance but he did sent in for tech support/repair for a few times.


I remembered that there was a talk given by one of the teachers on the Mac book usage. He mentioned that every year a few boys will lose or misplaced their Mac book. Which at that time prompted me to get the insurance.

My Son is posted to 1F (non affiliated), n taking higher Chinese.


He's not strong in Chinese, n didn't take HCL in primary too... But he don't mind giving it a try for now

Hi Winnie, great to know another parent in Sec1F. :hi5:

My DS is also posted to Sec1F, non-affiliated, taking HCL.

He knows he is not strong in Chinese, never taken HCL in primary school, but he knows and is prepared to put in LOTS of effort and passion into learning HCL.

Yay!! *StayPositive*


Glad to have found a classmate parent here...hehehe...

Same as my son...non-affiliated, HCL. He's a bit concerned that there are so many from the affiliated pri school... hopefully they can all mix well

For my son, Chinese is actually his weak subject , but he has come to accept that there's no running away from this subject. Let's hope that \"head knowledge\" of this realization will be passed on as a conviction in his heart. Otherwise, it'll be a truly uphill task.

Hihi,


Would like to know what happen in the event that the MBA broke down and needs to be sent for servicing. Do we need to prepare a backup comp for the boy or the school’s ICT will provide a loan set until the comp is repaired by the vendor?

Newstead told me over the phone that they could arrange for a loan set, but i forgot to ask if there would be any charges.
Anyone know if Sapura will provide a loan set?

DS wanted a 13" MBA, is 128GB storage good enough? or shd i go for the 256GB version instead?

Btw, DS is posted to class 1C, taking HCL as well.
Thanks.

I think the school should be ok whether it is Macbook pro or air. As long as it is the Apple platform.


Previous experience was that there was no loaner set provided when sent in for repair. I opted for the 13" 256Gb version.

I thought the principal mentioned 8 classes only, but if it's A - I : 9 classes?

No one from class A, D, H??
