i told the NCPS uniform and they told me can check with school bookshop. So it is the school bookshop that is selling the uniform? They also told me during school hours only for the sale of uniform. For the timing during school holidays, have to refer to booklist cos they dun open every day i think selected 2 to 3 days during the Nov and Dec school holidays

DS1 bot an additional PE t-shirt by himself this year & it's not from the bookstore but the shoes store opposite it. Mayb they tie in together during school term?

I still hv last yr's booklist. They were opened 9am-3pm for walk-in purchase for all levels on 11 days in Dec, w 1 of them a Sat a.m. Other days r for pre-orders & specific P2-6 walk-in.
R the kid required to wear the uniform during Orientation this time ard? If not, then there's plenty of time.

dun think will need to wear school uniforms for the orientation. Will need to wait for the letters. However i do know that if your children going for the HYPY class and phonics or whatever class which the school feels ur child needs improvement, you will have to wear their uniforms.

Dec busy period so may not be able to make it with the dates if not able to get the sizes on orientation day. a lot of hassle though.

Never mind i will call and go down tomorrow morning to buy first since now plenty of time. Dec with Christmas period near is a quite a busy time

i call the the number and it is actually the supplier number. Ask them for information, this dunno that dunno and keep saying they only supplier.


call the handphone number and the lady told me opened every day this week except friday. it is a stall opp to the bookshop. so i will be going down early to buy, can take my own sweet time to buy

i have went down to buy my girl’s uniform. Wow have spent 45 minutes cos have to try on a few sizes due to uniform either too big or too small. the lady told me that they will be opened on orientation day and in dec (27th, 28th and 29th Dec). No other day already once school holidays start. Actually i am quite surprised to see the stall is so small. First thought comes to mind is wow pasar malam stall. Cannot imagine orientation day so many parents queue up to buy. The lady told me orientation day always long queue and very slow cos some parents very fussy but she said a lot of parents have bought the uniforms already


by the way i got the letter liao. Any other mummies got the letter?

During Orientation day, it will not be at that place with the small stall. It will be held in a level 1 class room with more staffs serving to handle larger crowds. The books will also be sold in box (according to booklist) next door. But it's still better to buy early as it can be chaotic that day. You will know what I meant when you see it.

ya i will get to see that. at least the uniforms are settled. now left with the name tags and books, at least one less items to buy.

i just read the letter in details and saw that the books my girl has to bring one her first day of class.i just realised for chinese they indicate higher chinese language for primary 1 and i dun see any books for normal chinese. strange

For P1 & P2, NCPS only uses higher chinese, no normal chinese. I am not sure for upper pri though. When the good ones are told to pursue higher chinese, the rest go back to normal chinese?

I have received the letter from NCPS. This year no testing of the children as according to the admin staff. The class listed on the letter is the confirmed class next year 2012. I find it not fair , as I some how knew how it was being arranged to which class your DS or DD is suppose or not suppose to be... some how is very \"Confidential\"

Anyway, a lot of parents don't like the ideal of the child being tested. But from the point of my view, I find that tests conducted in the school during orientation is much fairer for our kids to arrange which class to go to in primary 1, is much more fairer then this way....

Also, In Primary 2 , if your child results are good especially in chinese, normally will go to class A or B for higher chinese. What I understand they have a lot of Chinese assignment to do ...
