I called and was told to wait for letter. She doesn't sound very helpful and friendly. Is this NCPS's attitude all the time?...it makes me regret sending my son there....

I had the same feeling when making enquires abt sch distance then. But the staff's attitudes over the phone seems better now that I hv a kid studying there.

Hmm...not really so for me even though I called them like only once this year regarding the library opening hours...curt and brusque So in generally I don't really like to deal with the school.

My No.2 will be in P1 next year too. I am planning to bring this year's list to double check against the 2011's list. Hope can save a bit.

How do u managed to maintain the condition of the bks?

DS' bks r like kiam chai, w torn covers, patched pages etc. :x
Would book-covers hv helped?

Mine is also the same case. I have actually wrapped them with those plastic wrap (have to cut to size that type) beginning of this year. Still the same. I believe they are still unable to really take care of their things at this age.[/quote]Mine likes to jam the books into the bag anyhow.
Would u need to buy a new set of Maths textbks for your #2, since there r lots of workings already written down?

Btw, I saw from earlier posts that we are supposed to get their uniforms/books prior orientation. It was stated that the orientation date is 22 Nov but I did not rec'd any letters for purchase of anything, am I missing something? :?:

My friend only received that too.
Perhaps things r done differently this yr?

I only received the Orientation date for my younger girl too. I think there would be another letter to tell us when to buy books/uniforms before the Orientation date as kids need to wear uniform on their Orientation day. If i remembered correctly, they would informed us of the kid's tentative class too.[/quote]Anyone received letter to buy uniforms and things? Already so late and no letter yet, NCPS really terribly slow...yet still requires students to wear uni on 22 Nov. Sigh.

I called the school. They said we should be receiving a letter this week with the details of books and uniform purchases.

Thanks for the info. Have been waiting for the letter. Hopefully it wont falls on 15 Nov that week.

I called the school last week to ask abt purchase of uniform/books too. It was a terrible experience with the admin office personnel, the rude lady asked me curtly if it's really NCPS I am calling?! :x

The sch will ask for feedback regarding its admin staff & various vendors during year end.

Get used to it. Even the notices for temporary suspension of enrichment classes by vendors (managed by Alumni) comes late. Really late. So late that many parents were very upset because their kids missed the classes (no make up lesson) and many vendors were not even kept in the loop (and the enrichment teachers were either overseas or already had other things planned)!

Ok, I checked up personally with the staff there. She said this yr's orientation does not require students to wear uniform, unlike past yrs when the orientation is 2 days. Is it true? Any parents can ascertain this fact? She said sch will send out letter soon.

I went there to get uni and shoe first instead of waiting for the letter. Good also that there's no one there yet and I get the full attention to let my son try out diff sizes. I also paid for the name tag as sch as pre-ordered for all P1 children.

Any parents know if student is allowed to wear velcro-type shoe? I find the school's laces shoe a bit troublesome and I have to spend time teaching him how to tie it (some more the laces must be NCPS one bearing its name).
