Hi Herbie,
Got the badge and tie (a bit kiasu) through the school bookshop, before knowing during reporting that the boys not supposed to wear the badge and tie before the investiture... wonder how 'tight' the requirement like... that's why asking fellow KSP whether what's the practice like in previous years...

[quote=\"syshi\"]Got few queries, hope can help:


1. Can share whether for those have not went through Rafflesian Investiture (Y1 2013), will DS wear the plain Raffles uniform (without badge and tie) to the Edusave award presentation? or wear back the Primary school uniform?

2. will AEP/MEP schedule clashed with 3rd Language schedule? If yes, which to drop (AEP/MEP or 3rd Language)?

Hi syshi,

1) I believe you wear your primary school uniform. When is the presentation?
2) AEP/MEP will most likely crash with third Lang. My DS was interested in AEP, but due to timing conflict, he chose third Lang. As to which to drop, you'll have to check with your DS which he prefers.

Hope that helps.

1. The presentation will be on 6th January, whereas the investiture will be on 9th January.
So mean that still wear the Primary uniform, instead of the RI's full white (without badge & tie)..
2. Thought for AEP just need to take up merit CCA of Visual Art or Photography? Will those both crashed on Tue 3rd lang schedule?[/quote]AEP is a subject itself. Nothing to do with CCA. But it is compulsory (i think) for those in AEP to join photography club. It will clash ultimately. School does not encourage pupils to take up both. It's either one. P said that herself

Oops... Was it mentioned during the registration day? I must have missed that...

Syshi, you have a interesting question here, but for sure I think so that it should be Secondary school uniform since it is after 2 Jan13 . Heard there are some whose scheduled to go on 30 Dec12 which drew them to think should be primary school uniform. haha... perhaps both are just acceptable .

Hi, my son is taking Japanese next year and I am wondering if anyone has any old Japanese textbooks in good condition to sell.

Edusave award presentation


Since we r in this topic, i have a qn:
- is the award presentation ceremony held the same way at all constituencies?
The reason i am asking this is because last yr was the 1st yr we attended the ceremony and we were utterly disappointed with it. It was a 3 hr ceremony in which 2 hrs were spent juz listening to a speaker from some family services centre. After that the kids had to queue up according to sch name to collect their cert n chq. If the students wish to take photo with the MP they ve to q up again to take photo but tis is optional - not sure if its free cos by then we were tired of waitg so we left without taking the photo. I really felt that the purpose of the ceremony was not achieved. So i want to know if its a usual procedure.
