We stay at the bayshore road …it takes me 1hr 30 mins to reach nus high school by public bus …the prospect of spending 3 hrs traveling daily in discomforting .

May be we will have to rent a place near nus high …can anyone suggest an alternative means of transport which takes lesser traveling time .

We are around that area too. Will probably let him try the school bus in the morning.

I stay in Tampines. It takes me about 80 minutes to get to school.

It is indeed discomforting... I often say to my friends that I hate coming to school every morning, and hate going back home in the afternoon, because the trip is so long. But I get used to it after a while. Nowadays I usually take those time as nap time to supplement my sleep.

You can also apply to get your DC to stay in the school hostel early, before year 5. I thought of that too, but it's a bit expensive without the year 5 subsidy (700+/mth) and I'm already used to travelling, so in the end I still chose to travel everyday.

Haha… I asked about early admission to the boarding school last sat too.

Brian Dean ,of mixed parentage is also the ex-president of NUSH Student council and on principal lists for a number of years. AS an example of versatility of NUSH student, Brain actually took history as his arts subject in y3/y4.

For a yearly graduated cohort of merely 200 or less, NUSH is getting more well known as one of the leading Science-based IP school in Singapore.

Thanks to Brendan, the students at NUSH get a day off on 20th August as a celebration for the school's excellent results.

To be fair, according to the circular, the holiday is a result of the overall achievements of the NUSH students in the past year and present year. [/quote] :congrats: NUSH! So good to celebrate your achievements with the students with a day off! :salute:
