We are unsure how to secure the collar pins and buttons.. The 'holes'on the shoulder flap are so small.. Wondering how do we force the buttons through.. Can advise? Sorry to be asking such silly questions...

Hi mamabear,

Not at all a silly question!
You have to put the button through the hole, before inserting the ring to keep the button in place.
When you want to take it off, remove the ring first before taking the button out of the hole.

Rather tedious chore to do everyday at first, but with enough practice it should only take 1-2 minutes.

There are also some people who rather sew the button onto the shirts to save time, but hey, I think it's a good shared experience to have with other students and also somewhat trains responsibility

EDIT: School collar pin is supposed to be on the wearer's left-hand side (i.e. Place it on the right-hand side when uniform is facing you) The chain can be tucked into the hole meant for the button. There isn't really a guideline as to where on to exactly place the collar pin, just estimate will do.

Hope this helps!

Thanks! Do we put the buttons on the flap for the pockets?
Was trying to search for photos on the web but cannot find..

Cannot force the button through the shoulder flaps too.. :nailbite:

Do the boys wear name tags? I was not told to order name tags at the uniform counter. I guess they don't wear?

No name tag unless you are in High School Council.

Thanks! Am so glad that there is no need to sew or iron any name tags for now. :rahrah:

May I know what SBGE means? Gifted students?

Saw this on the booklist.

May I also know what type and colour of school shoes are allowed in HCI?

SBGE is the School-based Gifted Education programme (i.e. those in iSpark consortium)

School shoes must be predominantly white, black or dark blue, no striking colours. I personally prefer black track shoes because comfortable, don't get dirty as easily and can play sports also

Thanks! So as long as not from Gep in pri school, he won't be in Ispark?

Called bookshop. No mention of the set up in hall
