Hi parents,
Any kids staying in Serangoon Avenue 4 or Race Course Road using school bus?
Can I know the pickup/drop off time?
Thanks! -
Hi,
Hope this reply is not too late.
There are 3 days with PE lessons.
Don't need to buy the PE Shorts.
Just buy the tank tops will do. Cos' there isn't time for the boys to go change from their school shorts to PE Shorts. During the PE days, just get your boy to wear the tank top inside the white shirt.
Hope this is useful.

You can call up the ACJS transport office at 67375082 to check with the driver in charge of the area;-)
Cheers
Thanks.
Will do so tomorrow.
Osakachan,
do you happened to know how many times PE per week for P2 kids?
Was trying to figure out how many set of uniform and PE attire to buy.
Thanks.[/quote] -

Hi Happymom,MummyThreeStreams:
Hi everyone,
My son will be in P1 next year. Sorry if this sounds like a silly question, but how much does the canteen food cost? Trying to figure out how much pocket money to give him.
Just checked out the canteen food while waiting for the books to be packed.
Prices generally range from $1 to $2, for noodle & rice items. Was very worried regarding lunch as DS is a super fussy eater.
After looking through the stalls, DS actually told me he'll eat fried rice/chicken rice every day :stupid:
Would suggest around 1.50 to 2.00. Personally, feel that food are not cheap though. Encourage your child to bring along water bottle during recess (those with sling carrier). And label it with his name and Class (Very important)
Just a suggestion, it is very common for boys to leave their wallet on the table or bench.. and they will run off without checking. Get your child a wallet and get a \"spring attachment\" or \"Coil Keychain\" which one end attached to the wallet and the other end, you can hook onto the child's pant. This way, your child will be \"reminded\" to put in the wallet into the pocket everytime after using. (if you need the picture of how it look, let me know, I will try to take a picture of it).
Cheers! -

If you want, you can bring all the workbooks of 1A, usually Teachers will keep them in the cabinet in their classes. If not, don't worry about the first 2 days, teacher will tell them on the day itself.hi mommies,

Ya, the PE shorts is not required. I don't understand why they still selling it though. But if you have already bought it, you can let your child wear it for his cca.

Thanks for your info.
Already bought the PE shorts.
Its nice knowing DS can wear his tank top inside the white shirt, else by the time he got himself changed, PE is over.
Given DS character, if he needs to change fm uniform to PE attire for three times a week, will need to buy new uniforms very soon :oops:2bbtang:

Really thanks for sharing all the info. -
Hi everyone!
Thanks or sharing all the info. Really helpful for those of us who are inexperienced! I think the spring attachment thingy idea is brilliant. Do you know where I can get it from? Popular?
Didn’t buy the shorts coz the woman at Bibi and Baba said it wasn’t necessary.
My boy is really looking forward to P1, and so am I! -
