      if your child does not walk to school, there’s no real advantage as they still need to climb the stairs to their classrms.

          Hehee.. Schellen's rite. It's good to be clear about it.

          Especially since you are planning to get a very good
          brand too! 😉 So unless you wanna use the trolley
          bag only during those long holidays overseas, or else
          simply let it collect dust.... better to be safe than sorry.
          If you more KS then buy both, trolley and back pack
          type! :lol: So, in case of mis-communication, you got
          back-up plan... or bag, in your case. 😉

          Chief, we got an old thread on school bags and
          stationery... you think can merge?

            My children’s school do not encouurage trolley bags as it might be dangerous for the children.

            If their classroom is not on the first level, they have to lug their heavy bag up to the level their classroom is.

            I personally think getting a good school bag is better and can last longer as compared to trolley bag.

              Hi All,


              Any idea where can I get trolley & roller bag for Primary 1 student?Prefer comes with warranthy period & comply to certain codes & standards.
              Titank, I personally think trolley bag is not very easy to handle esp for yound kids. You can try the ergonomic bag as suggested by MMM. My two kids used the brand SPI & they are real lasting. My girl is in P4 now & she is still using the same bag since P1. My boy also used his bag fm P1-P4. After 4 yrs, the condition is still gd but I buy a new one cos' the old one design is a bit childish. I pass the old bag to someone (after washing) cos its such a waste to discard it. I usually wash the bag at the yr end sch hols & it looks like a brand new bag again. The bag comes in 2 sizes S & L (approx. $129 for the L one).

                Yes, agree that SPI bags are really good and lasting. My boy used it from P1 to P5. Then we changed to Deuter, not because the SPI one was spoilt but because it was getting too small.

                  Hi pinky88

                  Agree with you that the SPI bag is good investment. Can I know to what extent can we get it washed? Did you soak the bag wet or merely wiping the surface? I do that once in a while this yr when he gets crapon marks on them. However I intend to have it a more thorough cleaning this yr end. Any advice?

                    My two children are carrying the ergonomic bags. Just gave the bags a good wash during the 1 week PSLE marking holidays. I soak them in water with some soap powder for about 10 mins and I hand wash them after that. Looks clean and good after the wash.
