when i last enquired frm the sch bus operator, he said for days where the sch starts early, such as on this wednesday, for the enrichment class, he will not ferry the kid to school, but he will still ferry back on the home trip. I wonder if this is true ?


that is one of the reasons why we find the sch bus fees is exhorbitant.

Since last year, and also yesterday, my kid took the school bus to school on Wednesdays when she has speech and drama lessons.

I believe the school has also briefed the bus operator about Friday's early session. I enquired about the timing for pickup on Fridays (starting Feb. 5) and the bus operator told me pickup time should be about 10:00 a.m. (my kid's pickup location is AMK).

i hv checked with my bus operator (Toa Payoh area), same as Tulip. They'd pick my son from the student care early on Wed n as well Fri, cos tht actually consider as the start of sch time n not the CCA thing, which i believe most bus operator dun \"service\" the CCA timing. tht's why i think the operator \"increases\" the fare due to there're so many timing in a wk of sch

may b u shd check again, as i tot the bus service shd b under control of the main operator, which indirectly shd oblige to serve for KCPPS. cheers!

regarding the pupil's diary...how all parents find it?? working or not??

as at several times, i hv found tht the \"instruction\" is either not clear, or total no-information for example, on last Fri i found no indication of any sch/homework, but then when i went through wif my son n his books, i realised there actually some homework/worksheet tht he needs to complete ...
is either me dun understand the \"language\" of the teacher(s??) or merely the diary was not being put in full use ...??
so how the teacher make sure tht the msg or information being properly convey?? :?
n i also wonder tht diary is totally under the form teacher care, or all the teachers, as long as they hv some msg to \"send\" for parents ??

school diary for students themselves to write down the homework that they have for the day. or any impt things to remember, e.g. bring $$ to buy books, or bring some items to school next day.

maybe for the younger ones like the P1s, the teacher may write on the board and ask the kids to copy.

if you hv any msg for the teacher, you can write in the sch diary, but u must ask your child to show to the teacher. the teacher can't be checking all the diaries everyday.

hope this helps.
