I am so with you on this . I dont see why the school provide lockers just for the kids to put nothing much in it!! Plus we had to pay for the lock. And yes, my boy's bag is just as heavy. Very bad for their growing backs. I thought sometime back there was an article in the papers about MOE frowning on bags that go over a certain weight?[/quote]I didn't know we have to pay for the lock!! Can you tell me how much does it cost?skyjuice:
[quote=\"silver88\"]Just wondering if your DS school bag is super heavy? My DS bag is super heavy even without the lap top. Told him to bring only stuff that are needed but he insisted all are needed. Not sure if the rest of the boys are having the same problem? :x
My DS's Sch bag easily weighs 5 kg at least! No matter how he tried to clear, he said everything else is needed. Lately he seems abit hunched forward. I wonder is it due to having to balance himself. This yr Sch removes the lockers so everything is on his back. Heartache when I see him carry the bag!
This problem has been troubling me since they are in primary school. However, school doesn't seems to help out much on this issue. Whenever you ask the children what is needed in the bag, they will say all needed ! Guess there is no way we can help the children in this issue ! :x -
Silver88, is your ds in Sec 1 this year? You got to pay for the padlock, not the locker itself. I cant recall the actual price.

If I am not mistaken, it is $20+ or $40+. -
