Dear all,
We will be overseas in Dec and will only be back in SG on 1 Jan. The bookshop lady said the 2020 booklist will only be out on S1 reporting day, but we won’t be around.

We hope to buy some of the “compulsory” books before we leave for our trip. May I know which textbooks Y1 uses for Math and Literature?

If anyone still has a copy of the 2019 Y1 booklist, kindly PM me a copy.

Thank you so much. 🙏🏻

We are in same situation. DS just got his WL converted today and we will be overseas during reporting day.

Don’t worry too much about buying textbooks & school stationery. Other than buying the school uniform (school tie & badge will be given on Investiture Day) by the time school reopens, other items can be purchased later.


As far as I recall, only Mother Tongue, Literature & 3rd language textbooks are required when lessons start, other textbooks are optional - buy later on a need-to basis.

To minimise queueing time, enquire on school bookshop & uniform vendor(s) operating hours, and purchase the necessary before/after Reporting Day (RD) or even on RD in the afternoon.

For info, as a guide - 3 sets each of uniform + PE attire should be sufficient. 1 black Polo-T (for Fri) & 1 House-T (for Wed) - House allocation only announced later. White socks (no need school socks) - no ankle socks. White shoes (70% white).

Prefects' school attire is black shoes + long pants.

Regarding House T, you can wear it on Wednesdays instead of uniform? Thanks.

For those that wish to wear on Weds : House-T (in place of school white shirt) + school white shorts / pants
