      Has anyone got any idea when do we get books & the uniform. Is it the same day of the orientation day .

      Based on my last year orientation day experience ...

      Yes, you can get the books (usually not all) and uniform on the orientation day. However, you need not rush to get everything done. All parents will be given an orientation kit on the day, read through them while waiting. Get the key stuff settle such as GIRO submission for school fee, dental opt-in/out, bus arrangement etc.

      Books and uniform purchase can be follow-up at a less stressful pace. School will provide the opening dates and hours of bookstore during Nov/Dec.

      Of course, if you feel that since you have already took a day leave (not sure if this coming P1 orientation going to be weekday or weekend) may as well settle everything, sure, just remember to bring enough cash.

      Books, Stationery, PE attire, School Socks, etc
      parents will receive the book list via post before the orientation, so parents who have hand down books or prefer to buy from popular can plan their purchase accordingly.

      there are items which definitely have to get from the bookstore such school exercise books, PE t-shirts, socks, etc

      I remember there was an online ordering option too but I didn't use it.


      Uniform
      Parents can buy the school uniform on the orientation day. Again, expect long queue.

      If there is no change in supplier, parents can purchase the uniform directly from the supplier at Katong Shopping Center 😄

      Again, all the suppliers/operators details will be made available to parents.

            You can choose to let your son goes under the school dental routine check-up or choose to opt out.

            My boy has his regular dentist since 3 yrs old, hence i opt him out from the school dental service. Which means i have no idea how nowadays school dentist practice is like :scratchhead:

            During my times, I remember whenever we saw a nurse with a mask holding a card entered the classroom, everyone started to shiver... :nailbite: LOL

              What are the advantages of school dental over outside dental?
              Anyone can advice?

                how many top classes are there in OEPS ?

                do they fix these class names, or every year change ?

                  Oh... top classes :scratchhead: didn't really think of that ... will check with the teacher during the next parents teachers meeting.

                  so far i see all the class names are the same for all levels.

                    Yes, good to go and check it out!


                    usually schools will designate a few top classes where they focus, pay more attention to the pupils like "plant" the best teachers there, best resources there, hoping that they’ll help the school to pull up the socks in PSLE.
