I received mine on 30-Nov but I ordered late (mailed my order to them i/o ordering on orientation day). I thot the name-tag is for uniform only, must we iron on PE shirt also? And now that you mention, how about house T-shirt?

Thanks to all mommies for your warm welcome. :lol:

I sew the name tags on every piece of uniform, right to the house t-shirt. There are a number of MS students in my company’s student care and I saw that they have name tags on their PE shirts.

Hi Namie,

No need to have tags on their school shorts right?

Hi Vicky,
Where did you get the S$20 Casio watch?

I bought the wallet, water bottle, socks, ergo bag, pencil case, stationery etc already.

Will get even cheaper Ocean Bay school shoes for him instead of BATA. Went to Bata yesterday and the quality is quite bad for the cheapest ones. So I will get the Ocean Bay ones from those neighborhood shops. Anyway, velcro shoes can only be worn in P1…

That reminds me... i need to bring him to a public phone and teach him how to make a call using either coins or phone card!

Erm, where can we even find such phones nowadays? Maybe I'll write an email to his teacher to get her to teach them how to use the coin or card phones... This is going back in time...

Did anyone of you manage to buy shoes with laces? I went to Bata but was told the smallest sized shoes with laces are meant for at least 9 years olds.


Bought my son a watch ($28) from Vincent watchshop. He was really thrilled because till now his "watches" are those Power Rangers watches that are more like toys. This is his first "Real" watch. He saw me wearing my watch yesterday and asked me if I got mine from Vincent watchshop as well. His expression told me he is very proud that his watch came from there.

Hi cherrygal,

We went to \"The Bencoolen\" - next to Albert Complex/ Sim Lim Square. They have quite a few shops selling watches that are very reasonably pxed!! Most of the shops there sells Casio (px from $13 (yup! those watches that i used to wear when i was young) to $100+ (Baby G/ G shock type)).

We chose a $20 watch (mid range for kids type) that looked like a mini \"G shock\" type - alittle bit on the 'im cool' side! :imcool:

Note: If you do go there - do browse around first before you buy - cos there are some slight px differentials (between $2 to $5 for those kids models and up to $15 bucks for the G Shock models) between the shops + some shops carried more designs than others....

Now that you mention it, maybe I should!
