But curious, how do you teach him money sense? I'm thinking about how to start my DD on that. The only saving concept she knows is that ang pow money will be saved in the bank.

So far, he doesn't need money for own use. Ang bao goes straight to his bank account. Recently he wanted to buy a Ben 10 book, I told him he has to take out of his hard earned money; he cannot use the money that is for reward (eg reading well that kind of thing).

That poor fella had to do some chores around the house like fold pillowcases, dry mop the floor, to qualify for that hard earned money. He did get extra tips for doing those chores with a smile though.

[quote=\"hquek\"]once I made spaghetti and it was returned practically untouched. Since then I've scaled down on ambition and just stick to fish fingers + cheese. Our friend won't even take ham at times, so not going to try ham sandwich. :stupid: :stupid:

First time I hear a kid does not like ham. I try not to give my kids too much ham because of the salt and preservatives.

Mine also doesn't like ham. Everything you give it to her she will :dowan:
Believe it or not.. recently then she start eating french fries[/quote]I, on the otherhand is trying means and ways to cut down on their fries intake :lol: :lol: :lol:

Happy to work for his Ben 10 book

Understand that the school starts at 7.15am and bell ring at 7.30am. What happens if student late, say come after 7.30am, will be punish?

Hi, I m quite new here. I have 2 kids in HWS and recently I was told that they have difficulty getting food in the canteen cos everyone is cutting queue. Therefore, my kids (P1 & P3) have requested for packed food for this week. Just wondering if your kid/s facing the same problem?

Yes! My DD (P1) has even complaint to me that the upper primary kids always like to cut the queue and she even pushed down by one of them.

Thereafter, I've been preparing lunch box for her after since the buddies system kick off.

My son was buying food on his own from the canteen after the buddy system stops. I encourage him to do so & he was fine all the while except lately… He told me most of his classmates now also bring packed food because they all have the same problem, can’t get food as they are being pushed & squashed. Poor P1s… any other parents having the same concern?

Does HW have Prefects maintaining order or helping the younger ones?

[SAHM_TAN]

Curious that the vendors did not voice some friendly warnings to the older kids. If more and more younger kids are bringing packed snack, it would affect their biz
