1. Purchase of Books (Online)

All purchase of books will be done online via the Pacific Bookstores online portal. You will first need to register for an online account with Pacific Bookstores before you can make the online purchase. You will also be prompted to select your preferred date and timing to collect your books in school.

Note:

Regarding SBB (Subject-based Banding): Please check and ensure that you purchase the books at the correct academic stream for your child/ward if he/she has accepted the offer to take up subject(s) at a more demanding level. There will be no refunds offered by Pacific Bookstores if the wrong books are purchased but exchange of books is allowed (books must be in good condition together with the order list).
If you are unsure, you can choose to purchase these books when school reopens with advice from the form/subject teacher. (Please refer to Other Important Matters segment for more information on subject offers).
Home delivery service is not available. Parents/Guardians are to select the date and session (i.e. morning 9 am to 12 noon or afternoon 1 to 3 pm) to collect their orders in school. The available dates for collection in school are indicated when you login to the Pacific Bookstore online portal to place your order.
You are highly encouraged to bring with you a printed copy of the book order list when collecting the books during your scheduled appointment for collection.
We seek the understanding of parents/guardians that walk-in purchase of books in school will not be available.
If you are unable to purchase books using the online portal, you may call the General Office at 6283 3381 for further assistance.
