Hi all,
Also do any of you know if the MCS school bookshop sells PE shorts? I've got all my gals stuff already except for the shorts( that seems to be forever out of stock) and her excersice books only!

Parents with gals in 1RESPECT out there....is it my imagination or was the chinese teacher the only \"smiley\" one...the other two look so cold and didn't even return my smile....my gal super timid leh...hope the teacher won't put her off going to school.....


Hi funkymonkey and shree,
The MCS bookshop does not sell PE shorts. Only United Uniforms sells them. You'll need to wait till stock arrives.

These teachers in your DD's class on orientation may not be her teachers as they were only helping out with admin procedures. Not to worry, my DD2 was also very shy and timid beginning of the year and I was so worried. Now, she's very chatty and keeps chatting on the phone with her friends. Her P1 teacher was most encouraging. Most of the gals hug their teacher after sch daily.

Mine is sitting right at the back!Hope they'll switch places for gals who are shorter...


The seating arrangement is only temporary. The gals will be sitting in groups when sch reopens. Their groups will be changed every term so the gals will get to meet everyone in the class.

Hi Tinkerbell

Thank you so much for sharing with us.
it's reassuring to hear the pupils hug their teachers everyday

Hi Tinkerbelle


Thanks a lot for your sharing.
It's great to have you around.
:hugs:

Glad to know the P1 form teachers are yet to be confirmed.
Hopefully they will all be friendly, cheerful and approachable.
Heard from a friend (not from MCS) that the child in the class pee at the seat on the first day because he was too afraid to ask the teacher......

[quote=\"acbj\"]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!!

Quite true hor?!! then I better start shopping for nice shorts. Hee..... :lol:[/quote]how about those safety pants?? something like panties but its like a boxer shorts...bought a few for my girl just now, hello kitty designs, hehehe...

But looks like this is really quite messy. Yet to call the bus vendor, am gearing up myself in case the bus vendor started shouting at me or what, muz prepare 1st LOL... :lol:

Does that mean u have to rehearse first with DH? :rotflmao:

hehe... no lah. It's just that sometimes we might be caught off guard if such nasty situation happens and I might not wish to offend/upset the bus vendor since they will be fetching my girl to and fro mah... so must see how to tackle them...
