T3:

Heard from a friend that a bowl of noodle cost $0.70 so the kids need about $2 for pocket money! Also, the class are separated based on month of birth, that is why they have 12 classes.


I wonder typically how much parents give to their primary school children.

I'm giving my girl $1.20 per day. and she still gets to save $0.10 or $0.20 everyday. I have 3 kids, 1 already in Taonan P2 this yr, and 1 going to Taonan P1 next yr (so i'll see some of you during Orientation, maybe we can arrange a meeting point for kiasuparents forum members to meetup hehe)

You should get the booklist during orientation for P1 and normally parents skip the talk to queue up for books / uniforms (true spirit of kiasuism!!! )

hi fellow Taonan parents


Has anyone received letters from TNS regarding the orientation program ?

Most schools I know has already sent out letters informing which class their kids will be in and the orientation date and program.

does anybody know where will the current principal of TNS, Mr Tony Tan go to ?


In the MOE website, I didnt see his name being posted to any school.

I just called up TNS general office and the administrator told me that they are still in the midst of preparing the orientation letter to be sent out. So I am surprised that wa_si_kiasu_lau_peh already got the letter. Is your letter via the elder child currently stuying in TNS ?

oops, yes sorry that is correct. I have an elder daughter studying in Taonan and i got the letter from her.
