Anyone know how to tie the school tie back??? My maid remove everything before washing, now I dun know how to put it back :?:

You don't tie it. Have to sew it back to the supposed shape of a tied tie (quite \"play cheat\" - there's actually not enough fabric to actually \"tie\" it properly).

I have update the list in my previous post. Check if it is correct.


@NicHei

For the tie, its quite a challenge to put it back, my DS lost his first old tie, bought a new tie during holiday and broke the sewing string and become 2 piece. I figure quite long before putting it together and difficult to teach and explain. But phankao is correct, you need to "arrange both pieces" in a way that it looks like tie and sew the bottom piece together leaving the top piece movable for tying.

Thanks. For mine, the sewing string is still intact... I will have to figure it out how to put it back...

Sorry, I'm lost. My DS's tie is the same as a normal adult tie - did I buy wrongly? You mean there's another tie for primary sch just the the kindi type?

Well, so long as it is the same green colour like the pants and has Cath High Logo will be fine I supposed, because no body can see it when it is on the neck.

If yours is one piece, may I know where you buy it.

Ours are 2 pieces.

@NicHei

If your sewing string is still intact, that is it still looks like tie, that means it is only the wearing part that is being pull out. Slowly figure how to put this part in.

My DS’s tie was the string also broke and it looks like just 2 piece of strings.

I bought it at the school book shop last Nov.

[JonC]

When the tie is ok, you see as 1 piece. Only when the tie is spoiled, then you see 2 pieces.

ya i agreed with u n today is the last day for the buddy system....indeed is quite a long queue especially the rice stall...but dunno y the noodle stall was closed and i find tat some of the food they sell tere was quite ex....

Precisely, my son said that he wanted to eat noodles but closed. I asked him to eat spaggetti or malay noodles instead.

dreammom:

hi Blessedmum...aye i agreed! 3 days for the buddy system is too short. It will be good if they can extend the buddy system to a week. By the way, i've done some researched on the 1st day and for you info, the food is around $0.60 to $1.50 in average. Give yr boy coins and in $1.00, $0.50 & $0.10 as it will allow the boys to count & buy faster.

Hi dreammom, tks for the info...very useful. But my ds don't really know how to count $$ still...faint...
