      I felt that the material for the Uniform is not those that will absorb easily, so we went to shop for singlet. My DD loves to play..... under that afternoon sun, I rather she has something beneath than for the uniform to cling on to her body......


      Will monitor and see if its too hot or necessary for her after she starts school ......

      Again my 2 cents......
      😉

        Since young, I trained my DD to wear shorts beneath her dress/skirt - long or short.
        If her shorts is sticking out, that means the dress/skirt is too short. She can't buy it.
        :lol: :lol:
        Yes I think I will get my daughter to wear shorts too... as for the singlets, I will monitor...

        Thanks!!

            Yes, the sch passed them our addresses.. Tsk tsk..


            Mine quoted $185. JonC, last yr was $160 rite?? 😉

            The Sch should at least 'block out' the unit number.
            It is not as if we parents expect them to send DD right to the door step or pick them at our front gate.
            :!: :!:

            Hi autumn 82

            Do u stay at sembawang?
            If yes, can you tell me who did u call?
            I called, spoke to, SMS to him as he requested, but no news.....
            Thanks.

            Hi there,

            I called Mr Pek Kim Huat (No.14) but was asked to call Mr David Pek (no.13) on the namelist instead. He said will confirm everything before/after X'mas and when school reopens, have to pay 2 mths, Jan & Dec fees together.

                  The school has no authority to release such P&C info to any vendors without parent's permission! Especially since the bus vendor is not a staff of the school!
                  You should feedback to the school and CC a copy to MOE. This is totally unacceptable!
                  Ok, i called the school to ask about this. I was referred to admin manager and then to operation manager. They are not sure who gave the addresses to the bus operators but assured me that the bus operators have been with them for last 20 years, no issues so far..? With that, i asked to speak to Principle who is not available till 1 Dec, the Vice Principle is taking exam today, so not available too, I asked for the next covering officer and they said they need to find out.From 2pm, nobody call me back.. its so messy messy...

                    ... have to pay 2 mths, Jan & Dec fees together.

                    Huh? Why we have to pay for Dec fee when we only start using their service in Jan? :?

                      Erm, Jan 2011 & Dec 2011. 😉 Not Dec 2010.

                      He was telling me, must pay 3x of double fees, Jan/Dec, May/Jun & Oct/Nov. The rest of the months are single mth fees.

                        It doesn’t make sense to collect for Dec 2011 either…


                        I just called my bus owner, she asked me to call her again in Dec nearer to the date when sch re-opens. She’s charging me $75/mth for to-and-fro trips.
