hi octoberbaby
the principle is ex-Eunos principal. i have checked this out before i enrolled my girl last yr (next yr p2 explorer, 2nd gal p1 inquirer). but no idea before eunos pri

hi ahteeahto
i think u still can go to the primary sch to buy the uniform. may be i can ask my girl whether the vendor still around or not.

btw all horizon mummies,

the organiser for 2013 is not ready till next yr - 1st day of school.

hi mummy blackyv


i think Horizon only provides Higher Chinese. They do have enrichment classes for P1. my girl signed up for 1st semester only. She doesn’t want it thereafter. The class was on every Fri after sch. But not sure on yr 2013.

hmm… someone ask about proteach… my 1st gal in Pro-Teach. So far she enjoyed it. Provides nap on those days when class ends at 1.30pm. Subsidy only provides when u meet the minimum salary level. per mth is $250. i think some mummies should have attend Pro-Teach orientation on 16Nov (same day as P1 registration).

hi mummies, may i ask, are those textbooks from Popular Bookstores exactly the same? I find the price online from Popular is slightly cheaper, in additional, there are 5% discount for members, please advise, thanks

Hi mummyofthree

Thanks but do u keep a copy of the uniform list?if yes can send me a copy?
I understand ur girl in pro-teach and ur gal next yr P1 so is it confirm ur gal can get a seat in pre-teach as my son 2014 will also be in P1 after my girl in P1 motivator. Thanks

i have checked they are the same, but i’m lazy to run 2 rounds - sch to get english, exercise books, etc. so i buy everything from sch instead. I have a friend that bought P1 textbooks from popular (few yrs ago) & there were some changes - either syllabus or different edition, end up my friend got to buy new set of textbooks from sch bookshop instead. anyway, all mummies want to save (me too), but i don’t want to take the risk of buying 2nd set.


textbook - savings 40cents each
workbooks - saving ard 25cents each

i did a calculation can only save +/- $2, without the additional 5% discount yet.

hi mummy ahteeahto


oh i din keep the uniform order form. But ytd i took a peep on the opening hours… the uniform vendor is open this thus & fri from 9pm to 3pm. I forget to take my phone to do a snap shoot. I know they are open on one of the sat but can’t remember the exact date. if u don’t mind, you can watsapp me at 82229852. once i take the photo of opening hours, i send to you.

yes my 2nd girl is guarantee of a place in Pro-teach. as long as your girl is in, your son will guarantee (anyway they will ask for a deposit as they did this yr to secure the place). And siblings got saving too. i think is $20 per mth saving for 2nd one.

As for the sleeping bag i bot at beach road after bargain $12 its cotton inside as i checked at giant and mustafa very expensive for the branded one and somemore not cotton.

Hi mummyofthree did u join the parents connect committee?

[mummyofthree]

hi ahteeahto


nope din join parents connect committee. FTWM… no time… i still got one younger son to take care…hee hee

sleeping bag $12 is worth … i can’t remember the name of the sleeping bag… but the kids don’t sleep everyday & nap time is ard 1-1.5hrs.

oh there are two OOS if i remember correctly - the organiser & the one that the principal mentioned during the 16nov orientation… can’t remember the exact book name. this book can only be ready ard end Jan as explained by the principal.
