Like VitoRelax say, I'd rather have it custom-made if it's only S$6.40 more, but then got to wait 1 month. :shock:

I paid $15 each for full alteration > expensive than a new shirt. Ready by Sun only.

Yeah labour cost in S'pore is expenseiv, for $15 might as well tailor made & get a new one !!

Jennifer:

The alteration lady told me this year many cases of downsizing vs last year many cases of enlarging.

This year NJC students are getting smaller in size ?

You are welcome.

Don't think you missed much if you already have the handouts given on 23rd Dec. Maybe you missed out on the purchase of PE attire. It is said that on the first day, please remember to bring PE attire for your child bcos I think the kids gonna play games to get to know each other.

Other than that, maybe you missed out on hearing the talk from the Dean for JH (Mr Christopher Cheng) & Principal (Mdm Virginia Cheng). The Dean basically go thru the handouts while the Principal basically spoke about how good NJC is.

I think the main briefing will be during the 1st session on 11-Jan-10.

Hope this help.

Cheers

Thanks, Vitorelax. We do not hv the handout cos my dd got in to njc through appeal and hence was not there on 23 Dec. Guess they will give us when we go there on 4 jan to confirm our acceptance. thanks

No problem, Just Mama, glad to be able to help.


I thought I read some where here that those appealed successfully also got the handouts ?

Hmm ... if you want, you can PM me, I can make a copy and mail to you if you want ?

I was too lazy to compare prices, maybe those small shops at Bt Timah Wet Mkt charge less. Would go find out next week. Kaypo :lol:

Actually, the receipt from Bibi & Baba says that you can exchange within 14 days. Maybe changing size is better ?

Btw, is Bibi & Baba open today ? I have been calling them since 10am but it was engage tone all the time 11

Jennifer & I all bought the smallest size already, didn't we? Well, at least I did - size 13 shirt & size 27 pants. Exchange for what? haha.

But I know of parents who appealed succesfully to NJC, they go exchange their uniforms (eg. acs or mgs) at bibi/baba to the njc uniform.
