      DHS orientation was $15 - include a T-shirt and 2 school badges, plus dinner on last night of orientation.

      Human-sized locker is considered as medium size. Big size locker must be able to act as bomb shelter for a hippo mah.... šŸ˜† :rotflmao:
      Wah, that type is like those in Storhub or Extra Space, ah?

        CHS' orientation was less than S$20, I think. Not exactly sure what it defrays.

        Thot most schools have lockers for each student these days? No additional charge? But small box-sized, only enough for some books, lah, not big human-sized ones.

            Paiseh just checked the invoice again, the locker rental and pad lock was $45 not $65. On top of that paid $55 for the discovery camp and $30 for the orientation package (got free tie, badge etc though)

            Did other schools charge for Orientation camp too?
            That means your tie and badge are not free, since you actually paid for them.

            We also had to pay for the tie this year when it used to be provided free. :sad:

                NUS High.

                Orientation $10. Includes one T-shirt given during orientation.
                Lockers free (at least till now, DS has not asked for extra $ to pay for locker)
                Locker big enough to keep one school bag.

                    Wah so good !
                    For us 1st 2 months need to pay $290 for fees plus others after the GEP grant.

                    Ooops ... Let me check again ... Hope I did not remember wrongly ... Suddenly remember there is one charges but couldn't remember what is tt .... Peisah Peisah ... :oops:

                    All schools have miscellaneous fees of one form or another. Some charge more, some charge less. šŸ˜„

                      Talking about locker rental, ACSI charges $65 per year with a combination lock provided. Thought that is on the high side.
                      What are the charges at other schools ?

                      DHS charges $10 for locker and $5 for lock. Total $15 a year.

                      juz went to check my gal's old file....
                      during her time, they only needed to pay $5 for the locker for yr 1
                      as DHS said that they subsided for yr 1 pupils.
