Hi everyone,


I was wondering how much pocket money are you planning to give your kids when they start school? I was thinking of $1 per day everyday and $2 on the Tuesdays when they have to stay back in school for CCA. What do you think? Is it too much, too little? Would love to hear what everyone has to say?

U didnt opt for the food voucher for ur child ? I have, so in the meantime i dont have to give him any pocketmoney yet. At the same time, i'll check the prices of the food in the canteen before deciding how much to give my boy.

No, I didn't. Since the school does not have a vegetarian stall, and since we are vegetarians, I plan to give them food from home daily. The pocket money is for any drinks and other expenses....

Does anyone know if we need to prepare any stationeries for the child such as pencil case, ruler, eraser???

[vividlaurel]

I would imagine so - I mean they would need the basics rite - pencils, erasers, rulers and a sharpener.

Do you we need to go for the 3 days? Anyone taking school bus?

[vividlaurel]

I am not too sure about this - but I am planning to take leave from work for 3 days. My kids will be taking bus in the afternoon.

Think your girl is the same class as my boy. Me also taking leave for 3 days to see him. Try to familar him with taking sch bus and recess.

Then we'll surely see each other. Is your boy in 1/8? My girl is in 1/8 and my boy is in 1/5
