For English it is because BPPS also uses the STELLAR program, where from what I understand, you don't need textbooks.
I think in this situation, maybe better to get it from the school itself. So when do you plan to go?preciousjam:
was at Popular in plaza....most of the pri 1 books are out of stocks...heard that could be coming in these few days....realize they don't have the English course books there....I'm not sure if they will bring it in...
only compare the chinese course book 1 and activity book 1, no stock for the rest. Prices are the same but Popular did say they offer 5% for textbooks.... -
Oops! I meant BPS and not BPPS

no wonder the publisher for the English is Teachers’ production and I thought I’ve never seen this publisher before…was thinking of going on friday…maybe not so crowded? saw that most of the coursebooks arrived in United Square popular…wonder if can get the thumbdrive outside? saw a 2GB thumbdrive at challenger $13.90

What about around 4 - 430 pm on Friday? I'll take time out from work and come there.
I think we should be able to buy the thumb drive and ear phones from outside, it may be cheaper.preciousjam:

I can check with hubby if he want to go on sat instead....What about around 4 - 430 pm on Friday? I'll take time out from work and come there.

No friday should be fine with me. Sat the kids have their Hindi class till 1 pm. You get your son and I'll get my kids also. So can finish the uniform too. We should check if they need the same brand for the IT stuff. As far as I know it should not be a problem.
After this, I'll take them to their kumon class also and then we can finish that also early.:Dpreciousjam:

They go to the one in Bangkit. They've been doing Maths since Jan and English since Aug. I do see an improvement in them in both subjects. The instructor there Mr. Kwan is also quite good.

It's about $120 per subject per month. A bit exp, but I felt, it was worth it...
You can join anytime. They give the child a test first to see how much they know and start from the relevant level.preciousjam:
