Hi michyms,


Do you know if the P1s are using My Pals Are Here Maths for MCS? A friend would like to pass her son's P1 textbooks to me. Am wondering if I should have them. Don't want to keep too many books around.

Tks for info.

Gin, I'm not entirely sure for MCS though I know many other schools use the Pals textbook.

Can the P1 mummies tell us which textbooks MCS uses?

Hi LLX04,
It's amazing how much every thing costs after you add all the items together huh.... :moneyflies:

You bought 2 pairs of shoes?? Did you end up using them?

I must admit she seldom used the 2nd pair which is more for backup purpose. Hehe, it's useful for rainy season only but guess I can save up for my DD2.

michyms:

Yeah, it really does add up!
Tinkerbelle, your girl brings her lunch to school? I wonder if its necessary to get those ergonomic kind of school bag. But that's really super expensive!

Initially, she was excited about the power of buying food in canteen but these days, she always asked for packed food for recess cos she is too lazy to queue , more time to play with her friends or go bookshop to shopping.

Packed food is definitely better, healthier and saves money how much is typical canteen food these days? 50 cents?

[LLX04]

It ranges from 70 cents to $1.30 according to my gal.

Wow, that's alot more than when I was in school, only 30-50cents back then. Talk about inflation :faint:

Hi michyms and Tinkerbelle,


Tks for asking, our DD2 is doing fine now, she is a little impatient to get off 'soft diet' and she is active and speaking much more now (after the 1st two days of not speaking much :)). She's got a few more days of anti-biotics to finish. Generally doing fine. She is enjoying the ice-cream sessions :), at least 3 times a day :). She says she does not feel any pain anymore, which is good. However, we still keep her indoors to avoid her catching a cough or cold from crowded places. A cough or a cold may cause the operative site to bleed. She understands that, so she is fine with that.

I have called up MCS and was told that we will only get to know in about October or November if our DD2 is exempted from MT.

Have a nice day!

Hi Gin,
Great to hear your DD2 is enjoying her ice-cream sessions and is on the road to recovery. Ya, can understand why she wants to get off the \"soft diet\"...keke....must be bland+++. Take care.

Good luck with the application for MT exemption. Hope you get some good news to share with us then.... :xedfingers:
