Hi PJ88,


Thanks for the update. I could have missed out the name tag stall (did saw the lady there), tot she was with the uniforms.

The rest of book lists are correct in my purchase… Was wondering is it a must to bring all subject books on the 1st day of school? Coz from what i saw from the school website for this yr P1, they did not need to bring all books except story book on the 1st day.

How many pair of school shoes will u guys purchase?

Hi all,


The name tags are iron on type but if you want it to be more lasting, do give a few stitches along the border la.
As for the shoes, at first I just bought 1 for my DD from the school, then I bought another Mary Jane type for her. Both last for about 9 months and I had to get new ones. From my friends experience, usually boys shoes are damaged easier la. Some of my friends had to get new shoes for their DS every 2 months, while the girls shoes can last around 6-9months.

Do start looking out for socks too. those white surface with black/navy/grey base is great. Another thing that I bought for my children is raincoat with schoolbag slot and it’s in their schoolbag everyday cause I don’t drive. You might wanna get shoes cover too.

And yes, on the orientation day they will tell you
- what time to report on the 1st day
- where should the children report to
- what are the books/file to be bring to sch
- what happen during recess (teacher will bring them down and also guide them on how to buy food)
You know parents can be monitor from a distance for the 1st 3 days of school, so what I did was 1st 2 days I prepared food for my DD. But on the 3rd day, I didn’t. I told her to start her purchasing of food from school where I can see how she is & where can be improve.
- school dismissal time and what happen at school dismissal
- you will also be inform the name of the form teachers handling your child’s class
