    • RE: Raffles Girls' Primary

      Hi, for parents who have had experience with the CCA selections before, can I kindly ask for some advise?


      My P2 girl did not get selected for RG after the trial last month. So, may I know if she can still join RG or it means she’s totally out of the game?

    • RE: All About Moving House - boxes, movers, etc

      Hi All,


      Just to add on to this thread. I have shifted twice with 101 movers- Albert, they’re 1 of the most cost-efficient companies at the point of time that I requested for quotes and they came back to be a couple of hundreds cheaper. Both times were full house-moving (altho the 1st move was only for 2 pax & the second move was for 2+2). I can say that their team was fast & efficient and mostly quite obliging.

      I’m shifting again in Sept/ Oct this year but this time I’m trying another company - Smart Moving Services- Eric. I’ll update again on their work ethics & whatsnot once the move is completed.

      I’m not using 101 Movers this time due to costing. As 101 charges same price irregardless if its full or half load (from 2nd truck-load onwards), and as the ctn boxes needs to be returned, that will be a problem for me as I’m only staying at the current place for 6-9 months while waiting for renovation to be completed for new place. So, I’ll not want to unpack most boxes of stuffs. Therefore, the cost of the ctn boxes as well as the load charges became a concern for me. Hopefulyl, Smart Moving Services will not disappoint me.

    • RE: Looking for transfer maid

      I’m looking to transfer out my Indo Helper (Ayu) who’s EX SIN. Been with me for about 4 months. Pleasant attitude, can cook well, patient with children. However, she’s not very good in her organisation skill and also cleaning chores.


      As my kids are in Student care & Childcare from Mon-Fri, therefore her main job is Household chores, but, after using her for 4 months, her housework is not up to my expectation. I find that she’ll work best if there’s supervision but if your main job scope for her is not Household chores and instead, child-minding & cooking. She’ll fit very well into your household.

      Salary: $630 with 2 off
      DOB: Jan 1986
      Height 158cm, weight 50kg

      Can speak English rather well, able to handle pork.

      Ayu follows instructions and can accept criticism as in if you ‘say’ or reprimand her, she’s not the type to show u black face or attitude. She’s the kind accept your scolding or nagging then will 1 ear in & 1 ear out, pros & cons to this attribute tho.

      Do PM me if you are keen to interview her or find out more. I have not inform her about my intention to transfer her out.

    • RE: Blacklist Irresponsible Maids

      Just to share my experience of a Filipino FDW. Do not hire her. Lucy Ca** Ando***.


      This is my email to MOM to 'BL' her but it will not prevent her from coming back to SG should any potential employers not check or EA pull a fast one:

      In summary of my previous helper's conduct, character, work attitude or performance:

      Conduct:
      1. Have been asking for advance salary from the 2nd month she started working for me.
      2. Requested for off days and salary increment after only working for me for 2 weeks. Before I spoke to her, she started showing bad attitude towards her work even being rude to the children (2 & 7 yrs old). Even though the contract between us is a flat salary with no off days as she was employed without agency and henceforth, she do not have to pay for any loan and she received her full salary from 1st mth.
      3. Been borrowing money from other FDW and so far there's 2 FDW appearing at my door step and asking for monies to be returned.
      4. Have not been doing her job well. House is dirty and not in a clean condition. Her main job is house-keeping as my 2 girls leave home with me Mon-Fri at 645am to school. Both attends school/ childcare from 7-7pm on weekdays. Her only job during weekdays is to clean up the house and to cook dinner for the children. But, she failed in her main job duty of house-keeping.
      5. Found out she has a boyfriend and she has been secretly leaving the house on a daily basis although I do not know what/why is the reason for leaving the house. She is not allowed to leave the house without informing me. But, from my cctv, i saw that she's been leaving the house daily in the noon.

      Character:
      1. Ingrate
      2. Dishonest
      3. Ill-mannered
      4. Grumpy & Grouchy
      5. Disrespectful
      6. Cannot accept criticism or comments from employers.
      7. Cannot accept employer's way of asking her to do things such as cook or cleaning the house.

      Work Attitude:
      1. Horrible work ethics
      - Places that can't be seen on a daily basis had not been cleaned for the past 12 mths that she was hired. I have videos of the horrific condition of my kitchen cabinets.
      - Food stuffs were left rotten and chucked away in the corner of kitchen cabinets and when i found it, maggots were found crawling around.
      - Attitude towards children is HORRIBLE. My 2 children who are in school/ afterschool care & childcare from Mon-Fri 7am-7pm says that this FDW terrifies them as she's always angry and always scolding them whenever I'm (adults) are not around. Thank god, my children are seldom left alone with Lucy Ca** Ando***.

      Performance
      Her main task in my house is to do house-keeping. Cleaniness of the house is top priority. But, she failed horribly.

      If I were to rate her accordingly upon 10. This is my rating:
      House-keeping: 2/10. Areas that can be seen is cleaned accordingly. But, areas that can't be seen has never been cleaned for the past 12 months at all.
      Child-Minding: 1/10. Not patient with children. Always showing a ill-tempered face. Ignoring the children when they greeted her, or say good night to her. Do not leave your children with Lucy Caya Andoloy at all costs.
      Cooking: 1/10. Cannot cook well. Only willing to cook food that she likes to eat and it's always deep-fried food. Non-nutritious and bad for children. Not knowledgeable about food safety and hygiene as well for she'll leave frozen food out to thaw at room temp. Despite me as an employer telling her multiple times NOT to do that, she still does things her way. Even caught her cooking broken eggs that has been kept for several days. It's pure luck that my children have not fallen ill in any way.

      With the above, I do not recommend that she should work for any fellow Singaporeans. She's a risk to any future employer.

      Saw her profile in one of the EA.

      PM me if keen to find out more as there's alot more, just that it's too long-winded to type out here.

    • RE: 2017 P1 Registration Exercise for 2018 In-Take

      Hi all KS parents


      First timer here due to register my DD for P1. We stay within 1km of Rosyth & Xin Min primary. Been thinking and looking at the stats. Should we drop Rosyth and go straight for XM as we’re 2C for both schools. Surely will have balloting for SC within 1km for both schools anyway. Or we should just stick with Rosyth since it doesn’t really matter as no matter wat will have balloting.

      Pennies for your thought. Really appreciate all advise.
      Thank you very much.
