Thanks for the help. I notice got a lot recommended art materials. My kid had art lessons so he have most of the items. Do i need to buy the recommend items or the mic set. Or just any generic pc mic will be ok with the school?

Hi,
It is better to buy the mic set that is recommended in case the one that you purchase outside is not compatable

Thanks for the advice, I check already the school standard mic is this model.

I tot of getting a better quality one but on second thought my dear son already destroyed a couple of my high end headphones so wait till he can take care of the electronics stuff.

Finally manage to settle the schoolbus but the bus picks up at 530am as it plys the woodlands route before going to Beacon. Going to be painful for the kid.


School holiday going to be another hassle as the school bus do not operate. Are there many school programmes during the holidays?

Jurong west st 91. The jurong west bus picks up at 6am but only up to Lakeside MRT. The Woodsland bus uncle and auntie stay near my place, but they start at 530am. I be moving to Segar rd in the future so my son have to endure one year. Anyway he have the habit of sleeping on the schoolbus. Hope he dont arrive at school exhausted.

You may want to let his form teacher know this so that he doesn't get punished or something if he does feel tired in school.
