I received letter for the orientation day. Would like to check with parents with existing kids:


1. school uniform only available from the school? No external vendors?
I'm a bit hesitant about having to go there and queue on the actual day. Was wondering if can buy from outside. I called the vendor listed on the school website but was told they are no longer selling.

2. books - those optional books. must buy? I cannot understand why schools must have optional stuff (dictionary items, the arts textbook). Why so wishy washy? Gosh... :stupid:

Thanks for all advice.

Hi hquek

I got it after OD. The queue was and will be long on that day. Just take note the colour of your child's house when you buy the uniform. I got the dictionary as my dd has to use it in class.

Thanks mps112,


I realised that of the dictionary items, I have the learner pac book (bought sometime back) - so not of worry. There is this CLIPS reader set. Do you know if that will be used in class too?

Do you know anyone who might want to let go their set? (I’m assuming this is no longer required after P1).

Thanks.

Hi,


Just to check with parents with kids going to P1 next yr or in 2012. Do you send your kids to P1 prep class? If yes, what do such course value-add to the kids’ kiddy / CC lessons? Is it just more practice?

Thank you

Maybe you should ask those whose kids are ALREADY in Pri school. In my case, I send my kids for English/chinese enrichment - no maths classes. I didn't send him for prep classes.

I've given him assessment books to fill up some time during the day and based on the stuff he's done, I think he should be ok for P1.

Hi Parents,
