hi HCI parents (maybe shld move to HCI thread).


All the boys do HMT. They have to wear the white shirt/khaki shorts to school Monday to Thursday, and change to PE attire for PE lessons. PE lessons are once a week (when my son was in Sec 1 (2014)). Fridays is their dress-down day, and they can wear PE/CCA/Class/School approved tshirt with Khaki shorts to school unless the school informs them otherwise.

Some CCAs (uniformed groups, sports) will require them to wear PE shirt for CCA, so you can adjust accordingly when you find out which CCA your son is joining.

As for the buttons, I sewed them on and they are fine. They haven’t rusted or come off, just became a bit bronze-colored. Just for reference, for the past 3 years, my ds has gotten by with 3 sets of white shirt/khaki shorts, and another 3 PE T and 2 PE shorts (black).

School bookshop is open 9-3 pm during term time.

Just to add, the uniforms can be purchased at the bookshop everyday during term time as well, so if you need additional ones, can always ask your son to buy when school starts.

Thanks for your info ,Lexis.
I suppose I have to make a trip tomorrow to purchase more buttons & extra pe attire (for orientation-have to prepare extra one tee).

I find the quality of the uniform pretty bad...around pocket area is quite bad, almost got hole already and if just apply a bit of strength, sure tear. Dont think can last. It is too think also. The PE attire is much much better. Quite disappointed. Have to make a trip to change. I called but nobody answered. When will they open till end Dec?

Timtim,
I called the bookkshop around 10plus & was told the bookshop is open from 9-3pm (not sure is it just tomorrow or daily ).I am going to the bookshop tomorrow to buy extra set of PE attire (already bought 3sets) as the boys have to bring along extra PE t-shirt for the 4-day orientation as stated in the folder we had collected earlier... :roll:[/quote]So you bought total 4 sets of PE attire? That's a lot. What about uniform? I also managed to called the bookshop and understand they opens as long as not weekends and holidays. Thanks!

What happen to the girl, now ?


After checked that is a system error, is the girl been placed back correctly, into RGS ?

How many of such cases reported, encountering system posting error?

Any other school(s), similarly affected ?
