:thankyou:
The scientific calculator that the school recommends you to buy would be easier for your daughter to use, because the teachers generally teach the students how to operate that specific kind of calculator. If you have a very similar brand of calculator already, then I suppose you don't have to get a new one. But it is best to get a calculator as similar to the recommended one as possible.
Also, from experience, it is best to get the school-recommended calculator, because sometimes, students forget to bring their calculators on important test and exam days, and they usually borrow calculators from their seniors. If you know how to operate the calculator that is more commonly used throughout RGS, then it is easier for you when you have to borrow someone else's.
How about the shoes? I heard shoes with a white base is good enough. How much colour on the shoes are you allowed to have? Thank you thank you :salute: -
Can someone advise if the zip/button should be at the front or back of the culotte? Hope my question does not seem stupid. It'll be easier to wear the culotte with the button in front, right? :oops: :oops:

:lol: :lol: I advised her to wear it with the button in front for today's CCA orientation but noticed some of the girls wore it with the button at the back.
Don't your daughter find it difficult to button & unbutton especially when the material is quite thick?

My daughter is telling me that it is difficult to button from the back & troublesome going to the toilet too - so I understand what you mean. I have cut the button hole alittle bigger and she is fine with it after that.:lol: :lol: I advised her to wear it with the button in front for today's CCA orientation but noticed some of the girls wore it with the button at the back.

haha… yes the culotte is very difficult to button. My daughter told me that some of her friends still need help to buttonup the culotte after one semester.

It's behind. I intend to replace the button with a hook. Easier for her to hook than to button from behind. -

Hey, thanks for the suggestion. I will do that as well.mummyjoyce:

ha ha..that's what my son suggested! :lol: He said I should sew the button on the button hole to make it seem as though it's buttoned. (just to comply with the original design) Then sew a hook on the underside and use that instead.mummyjoyce:
