My son going to P1 in 2012. I thought I hear the principal mentioned that parents can only wait at the waiting area outside the General Office.

Due to new buddy system, they cannot house the parents at the Canteen.

Any other parents can re confirm on this?

I called the school today & admin officer confirmed that parents are not allowed to go to the canteen during recess. We can only bring our boy up to the General office area in the morning! :-((

[quote=\"vicki\"]Oh Gees!! U just reminded me of the thermometer!!


Argh!! Now I hve to find both the lock n the thermometer!!

Ha! Thermometer. That's what most students will forget to bring on the 1st day of school. The school bookshop does sell if you cannot find it. Good luck in finding it.

Need thermometer?????? I didnt know... Which type? [/quote]Thermometer taking exercise usually does not fall on the first day of school. In 2011, it was on the first Friday of the school term on 7 Jan. In any case, teacher will start reminding the boys to bring and even collect the thermometers a few days before the exercise day.

During my boy's P1 time (which was a few donkey years ago, so may not apply anymore), P1 student's first thermometer was subsidized and given out by the school (if I remember correctly...very sorry getting old so can't remember things very well as such not very certain whether I'm correct); not sure if it is still the case now. The price of the thermometer is around $3 to $4 from the bookstore in the event if the boy need to buy one if they lost their first thermometer or it's faulty.

In a nutshell, my point is P1 parents might want to check with school first before rushing to buy thermometer.

Yes I heard the same thing, dunno if they will let me go into to buy the house t-shirt though.

For making phone calls, the boys are supposed to have a Singtel phone card. Where can I buy one (besides from a Singtel shop)? I’ve tried 7-11 and the nearby newspaper stand but they don’t sell phone cards.

[TonyThomasMum]

I am also interested to know. Post Office doesn’t sell them. One mummy told me there is a coin phone in the school.

So shan’t hunt for a SINGTel phone card.

Marist admin pple just smsed all parents to put a labeled thermometer in their kids’ bags on 3 Jan (first day of school). The sms said you can buy the thermometer from the bookshop for $4.20 if you don’t have. Most pharmacies also sell this quite cheaply.

Hi,


Can I check if the books that the P1 brings to school on the first 3 days will be kept in locker?

Because it is very heavy.Cant imagine them taking that load every day.
Thanks.
