Hi


I am looking for a childcare centre near NYPS. Can anyone recommend? Thanks!

Hi huskies,

Are you asking about childcare centre for those 6 years and below, or you are asking about after school care for those P1 and above?

Based on my limited knowledge (haven't venture too far...), there are kindergartens near NYPS such as Nanyang Kindergarten, My Montessori My World, and a going-to-open PCF where they only have half-day sessions. I think Eton House has full-day sessions. Not sure about CherryBrooks Kindergarten. As for after school care, as far as I'm aware of, there are Learning Bliss and Out-of-the-Box.

Maybe someone can add more?

Guess one way to get around it is to reserve one set of uniform specially for calligraphy days.

Good suggestion! Will do that if she still has calligraphy next year.

She will have. My DD is in P2 this year and she has calligraphy.

Thanks, BigD! Did you buy a new set of uniform for P2?

[BigDevil]

Nope. She didn't grow too much between last year and beginning of this year.

Only bought new PE attire since, for some reason, they scheduled a lot
more PE days for this year.

Now her skirts are a bit short, but Shanghai Uniform are all out of her size! :sad:

It's probably temporary. You should be able to get them before year-end.

We actually bought a bigger size to provide room for growth. However she has grown quite a bit lately, not sure yet if we will need to get new ones for her next year. On the PE shirts, a couple were actually quite badly stained, so we probably have to buy some new shirts for her.

[BigDevil]

Agree. They will need to have stocks to cater for the incoming P1.


But DW really unhappy with Shanghai Uniform...their stocks are forever stuck at sea.
Whenever we called, their shipment is always arriving in half a month time. So when we called in mid-Aug, the shipment would arrive end-Aug; called end-Aug, shipment arriving mid-Sep; called again yesterday, shipment arriving end-Sep. :roll:

We also bought bigger size for DD. When she started school last year, the hemline was below her knees. At the beginning of this year, it was right at her knees. Now, it's almost 2 inches above her knees....hence the need to buy new skirts.

Seeing that Shanghai has a tendency to run out of stocks, it's probably better that you buy the replacement before it becomes necessary. That's what I told my DW...buy DD's P4/P5/P6 uniforms NOW! Kiasu to the max!

[Busymom]

Really? I didn’t know it is so hard to get stock from Shanghai Uniform.


2 inches above knee is indeed a bit short… does the school have any guideline on how short the skirt can be?

[BigDevil]

Maybe because DD is an average size girl, so her sizes tend to run out?


Not sure if the school has any rules on how long the skirt must be.
But if DD does get caught, then we will take the opportunity to complain that
Shanghai can't meet our demand!
