Sjij dun have catered food. P1 has to q up to buy food. First 4 days p5 will help to be big brother to help p1. I think it's a better system than catered food. For catered food, we don't know how they wash the ingredients and how they cook though.

Actually even for canteen food, we won't know how clean also.... just have to close 1 eye when eating outside food... unless, cook ourselves lor.

[smurf]

You are right. But at least some of the food are cook in front of you, eg. Noodles, although the soup may be cooked beforehand.


Maybe you can propose to the sch that p1 be allowed canteen food on some days? Because it will be quite tiring for parents to get up before 6am to prepare the food.

Do they have anyone to supervise kids during recess time?

Err...


Actually i like the catered food scheme. Solves me the prob and i dont have to worry abt the food spills and running into each other with food in their hands situations.

Yes - maybe the food is not what they had stated - but i just 'make up' to him by giving him more fruites?/ veggies? etc for lunch and dinner.

It does help that my boy was from CC and hence he's abit like a whatever is given to you - you eat it kind of boy - so maybe thats why he is not that fussy an eater!

Haha - i guess im a 'take it easy' mum in that sense bah!

Namie:

My son still on MC today. Also had a talk with his teacher when she called me this afternoon. Told her about the punching and kicking incidents. She said she'll ask the boys next week.

Hi Namie - i have been asking my boy daily about class situation and he keep saying very good, no fights, no one disturb him etc. Maybe should ask teacher to change the 'group' your ds is in or change seats - could be within his group/ near his seat - the boys are abit more mischievious!

So far so good for me and my boy!! Hopefully it continues to be so! :celebrate:

so for monday lunch the child is allowed to go canteen to buy?

but since they hv not been trained to do so, and only p1, (not like some sch they hv buddies to train them how to buy food for 2 wks), i wonder if they know how to handle the money, food carrying etc on their own for lunch.

another option is go for catered but let him bring own food also - banana, (not sure grapes or other fruit will turn bad or not. ) banana safest but put in a box so wont be crushed., some bread.

if totally dont want catered i supp the only option is bread and macaroni soup or noodle soup. those soup dishes. or dry type eg pasta, spaghetti, no need to fry type.

those mummies still using the catering, how was the food on thurs and fri?

[cherrygal]

I have given up monitoring the food… think we either just have to accept or cancel.


Those going for the the Parent-Teacher meeting, please raise this issue up…

since a few parents complained their kids tummyache, cant be due to the punching case. shd be the food. the catererer probably prepared the food very very early

Hi all, i am new to this forum... and am interested to share my displeasure on the caterer too. My son also experience stomach ache last week.

I have been reading the complains on the food the caterer provide. The caterer should not provide packet drinks and tibits in their meal. I believe all parents will discourage their children to buy tibits during their recess. Why can't they provide the main course and a packet if milk or Milo instead. Why are we paying for the packet of plain water when they too have brought their water to school. Hope the principal will feed back to us.
