For the orientation camp, can anyone advise what e 1.5l bottle is for? Is it meant to be their water bottle or do they have to bring a separate water bottle?

I also not too sure but presume tt it is for putting drinking water :roll:
All meals are provided during the camping right, so the boys nO need to bring money for food yah?

Like the GEP camp, they bring the 1.5L bottle (with water) for drinking, then refill it with water again, whenever necessary.
Btw, parents are allowed into the school today. Quite a number are here. The school compound is so big, we can sit around anywhere quite comfortably, actually.

According to the green file we received on reporting day, yes, the meet the teacher session is on this Friday. It is quite convenient esp if u r picking your DS from camp cos meeting is at 6, pick up at 645.

The classes are put up at the foyer outside the general office. The kids checked their classes first, then went straight to their respective classrooms at the Yusof Ishak Block (the block where the CCAs booths were displayed during the Open House). There were seniors boys around to guide the junior boys. All was systematic and in order, so not to worry, paddy. I'm sure your boy will be fine. Are you picking up your boy after school today?

Yes .. Will be bringing him out for lunch n showing him how to take public transport back. Wonder when their ezlink card will be ready for them to use those gates which need the card to assess.

Firefly, u still at RI? do u know if the students are streamed according to class?

Does anyone know if Gate 15 (located next to a bus stop) is opened in the morning? I'd like to drop off DS there tomorrow. This morning I was queuing behind 4 cars at the drop off point within the school and all 4 parents alighted from their cars to carry the bags out for their boys. My goodness, these aren't primary school kids!! :faint: I really don't want to waste my time waiting in queue if the majority of the parents are going to be behave like this. I have other schools to rush to after that.

My DH was also complaining of parents dropping their kids along bishan st 21 (lazy to turn in?) n causing a jam in e morning. I guess we r much better off as compared to those schools at bt timah. Their jam is definitely worse. Just bear with it n see if next week is better??
