      Want to ask too about the donation card. i am quite out of touch already but do we need to fill up all the columns of the names? i heard from frens for other schools that if submit a blank one or simply a few dollars, the teachers will pass sacarstic remarks. For nan chiau, is it okay to just submit simply a small amount says $20 or so cos paiseh to ask neighbours or relatives to donate loh




      We need to indicate the amount and the name. I think the card indicate not to solicit from the public.
      so usually we just do it among the family mambers.
      Never heard abt sacarstic remarks from NCPS teachers. My gal teacher told them is ok even if they give a few cents.
      Dun worry abt the amount.

      i know cannot solicit from the public but we are very close to our neighbours and their children used to give us the donation card to donate too. But we are trying not to give our neighbours and family members to donate loh so thinking just us giving about $20 and put in a few names.

      At least feel assured that it is okay cos my fren mentioned her girl's school one of her girl's classmates got it from teacher when the amount not as much. i personally encountered that when i was in secondary school and it happened to my classmate and boy it was quite nasty

        No problem w small amount or little names. Wish the card was given before cny like the last time so that ds will hv a chance to ask from close relatives. We made 3 donations/funfair tix for nieces this cny. Ha…

        Please note that there r 2 collection dates so a second card will b given, if I rem correctly.

Though test not counted but want her to get used to it first

I thought the 2nd date is for the return of the card if not ready by 29 Feb. I don't think it's another card coming right? It's so stupid and I have never hear of such thing before, 2 cards come consecutively. Why would Nan Chiau needs so much donations (and for diff purposes) when it's back by SHHK??

                      My girl brought back the donation card last week and we filled it up from dad>mum>sis>granddad>grandma>etc etc...


                      Took this opportunity to educate my daugther the importance of money/fund (from our view and school's view) while not self-pressurizing over the collected amount.

                      Parents, do within our means, no stress... enjoy the process 🙂

                      Regards.

                        I was inspired by a real-life article where the s'porean writer's little angmo neighbour knocked door to door to \"sell\" her crayon drawings for token donations to help raise funds for her school. It makes sense that the kids should made the effort for their schools.
                        So i encouraged DS to make some simple crafts to raise funds.
