Yes food in MS is definitely higher as compared to other schools, everything starts from $1 at least. Some of the stalls are also overcharging, for items like nuggets, they are more expensive than my office staff canteen based on what ds tells me.

Can anyone share what is the school bus arrangement for kids after their weekday CCA? Does the bus still ferry them home, any extra charges?


Thank you!

I am more against the Quick Bites stall and wish they would stop selling fried junk like popcorn chicken, satay, hashbrown, processed food like siew mai etc. It's not cheap and there is no nutrition.


I am not asking for Jamie Oliver standard but they could at least ensure all stalls are selling proper meals that serve a combination of carbo, protein, vege and fruit. The Quick Bites stall should switch to selling freshly made sandwiches ala Subway and ready-packed chicken salads.

All sweet and gassy drinks should also be banned, except for isotonic drinks and beverages like Nutritea and Yakult. They should be selling HL milk if possible. I remember I used to get a packet of milk (with some cartoon on the packet) during recess. What happened to that program?

Talk about the Quick Bite stall, this is the stall that has started selling ICE CREAM!

And this is the stall that has short changed ds! Ds declared he will never buy from this store again.

Bigfoot, I encounter the same with my bus driver. He say just come down the same time cos he has other things to do after sending the kids to school!

Btw the latest incident, ds bought an egg tart supposedly for 80 cts. He gave $2 and the seller gave him 20 cts!

Namie, yes I keep thinking could be ds was blur, so I wanted to find out here if ds was the only one. Now we no longer give him a $2 note, just coins. I also ask him to stay away from that stall. I also agree with the other mommies here that things at this school is really ex, like $1 for 2 nuggets. My staff canteen is cheaper.

There were two times when ds ordered and pay, then when the seller hand him the food, he will ask ds to pay again! When ds protests, seller will say he did not receive.

Does any of your kids encounter problems with the canteen operators? Like double charging, giving wrong and less change? Ds encountered a few times and always with the same store…

I am also curious if any re-arrangements to this weeks stuff, my son has spelling, tingxie, 课文测验 and comprehension & composition. So am not sure if all will be tested.

Just to share, calling works! I called the dentist in the morning, they called him out of class the same day and then they called me back around noon to update on the findings. Ds teeth is full of holes!
