for P1, they wear PE attire 3 times per week (gym, PE and dance) and so to play safe (incase it rains) - get 3 sets.


As for Pinafore I got 3 sets (2 set - just nice, and the 3rd size - one size bigger). You will be surprised how gals outgrow their pinafore length by mid year.

Thanks for your quick reply...appreciate it.
My gal is very petite...maybe have to alter if I get XS. :roll:
So it's safe and best to get 3 sets of PE attire and 3 sets (1set biger size)of pinafore. Have to see the size/cutting.

Hi Mummies,

I'll be getting uniform for my daughter this week...would need your advice how many white blouses and PE attire to get for her next year (P1). Since she has to wear the blue pinafore everyday, I will be getting 3 sets of that...but don't know how many for the rest. Need your advice asap. Thanks.

Hiya,

I am going tomorrow. As my niece is in IJ TP going to P2 next year, asked my sis for her advice. She said to buy 3 pinafores, 3 blouses, 5 PE T-shirts and 5 PE Shorts as she makes my niece wear the PE shorts every day cuz my niece and my daughter sits very unladylike Also she bought 5 pairs of IJ socks but I think that is optional. I will be doing likewise but I heard she spent almost $200 for everything.

Got a shock cuz it didn't cost that much for my son when I bought his uniform when he was in P1. Hope this helps as a gauge.

I'll stick to 3 PE attires...on days when she doesn't have PE, will get her to wear the shorts which are thinner material. As for IJ socks, I hope it comes in a set of 3, so I can just get one set and wear white socks to supplement.

the IJ socks come in indiv pairs…usu I get 5 pairs…cos they are very thick and takes longer time to dry. It is optional if u wanna use IJ socks, you can get white socks from outside.


As for the PE shorts…ya, can be quite hot to wear shorts on top of the pinafore. I bought those girls’ boxes shorts for my gals to wear on days when she needs not wear PE shorts

Not to worry abt the uniform, I think the vendors will still be in sch daily for the first week at sch, and thereafter they will come to sch on the first wednesday of each month.

Bought school uniforms and books this morning around 9.30am. Afraid long queue and out of stock. Surprisingly not many people. No need to queue at all. :lol: Maybe there will be a crowd this Friday. If you are driving ok. If not, have to bring 1 more person to help or bring a trolley bag because they packed all the books into a carton box which is quite heavy. :!:. I asked my dd to push the trolley bag which I put all the uniforms inside and I carried the carton of books back home.


Hi Bebe,
Are the girls allow to wear the boxes shorts when they need not wear PE shorts? Bcos some school forbidden that. Thanks.

Brought daughter to the school at 10 to buy uniforms/PE attire and collect pre-ordered/paid books. Worried about the queue but surprisingly not many people at all.

Bought 3 sets of PE attire and 3 pairs of socks...socks rather thick, so will alternate with other white socks which I bought earlier. Sleeveless tops are great...but the PE shorts are rather thick. Will let her wear boxer shorts on days when there is no PE. The pinafores are rather thick too. Will soak it overnight to soften them.

The box which is used to keep the books is a good idea...can save environment and so compact. Vendor is doing a good job.

I went at 2.30pm yesterday and also like maybe 2 to 3 parents with kids only.


I like the sleeveless Tees but the badge printed on it like so big!

I supposed the school is okay cos my gals have been wearing boxes shorts for 2 yrs and did not receive any complaints from teachers.
