      so they are even opened daily during school holidays? ya i will be going down one week before or 2 days before the orientation to buy. Dun want to buy early as my girl is still growing and buying later will ensure that i can buy a longer and bigger size

      Not daily during school holiday. It'll be according to a schedule to be published soon. Best to buy 1 or 2 weeks before orientation as it's still school term and opens daily from 9am to 4pm.

      the last day of the school term will be 18th Nov so i guess i will head down to the school on that day to buy

            Stock come in batches so maybe no \"common\" sizes available by the time you want to buy. Just like during sales time, usually you can't find certain sizes as most people fall into that range if you're late. Cheers!

                Actually no need to worry abt long Q, we bot DS1's during the massive crowded registration days 2yrs ago (they were required to wear uniform w name tag at a later, separate Orientation date that particular yr), but the Q (w benches sitting space) was ok, as the vendor & her many helpers would issue uniforms down the Q to try on 1st, b4 making payment when reached the head of the Q. All done leisurely & comfortably within 30min (we need that much time to try various PE & uniform sizes anyway). She told us they specially bot in more smaller sizes to cater to P1. Her judgement was good, as she insisted that I took a size smaller & \"guaranteed\" it would b able to last DS1 till end of P2. Now I think last till end of P3 also no problem. :roll:


                It was the name tag Q that was a nightmare then, as all tags were jumbled up. ๐Ÿ˜ž Had they improved it last yr?

                    Last yr uniform section was chaotic, luckily I bought earlier. Hard to try on at all, so messy and crowded. The name tags part was ok, check name, take and go. Think better based on last yr since it's first time orientation is only 1 session (class already told in letter), unlike past yrs.

                      Then I think i better buy early. Rather be early then to get stresed up later. But do u have any idea when we will roughly received the orientation letter to inform us of the classes etc? One week before the actual orientation?

Btw, where can I obtain the schedule as mentioned in yr above posting?[/quote]I can't really remember if you will receive the schedule by post but I am sure you will get it during orientation. Look out in NCPS website too as it may be published. I remember the schedule was pasted near the school's bookshop before the orientation day.
