        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.

          good idea...just remembered my son's class end at 4.30...will bring him over immediately after school....what do you think? I also thought of getting those IT stuff outside...I've the challenger card so might be able to get it cheaper...just have to take note of the brand they are selling if we want to get the same....is it a hassle for you to get time off? I can check with hubby if he want to go on sat instead....

            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.:D

                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.

                        I got the booklist on Monday. For schoolbags, I had gotten the kids the trolley bags last year. They used it while travelling and if the school allows, I plan on using that.
