Hi freestyler898,Hello all kiasuparents,
Just like a number of anxious parents there, my girl will be starting P1 in school year 2016 (2 wks or so to be exact from now) and I have yet heard the final word from school bus operators in terms of route/pickup times etc. But from what has been tossed around, I have been hearing that the school buses aim to reach school at 6.40am or possibly even as early as 6.30am (which is when gate opens as far as I know). Is that right? That doesn't sound too appealing given that students are not required to be in school until 7.20am or so?
We live within the 2km zone from the RGPS (hillcrest site) - a direct non stop drive from our home along sixth avenue to school is usually no longer than a 10-15 min. commute without your usual peak hour traffic. We have been warned that the pickup time by the buses be no later than 6-6.10am to avoid the congestion - is that plausible? Just thinking out loud given that we're new to all these.
Appreciate all your inputs.
Thanks
I'm also along Sixth Avenue. The bus operator has just informed me that pick-up for my child will be at 625am. She will be the first few to be picked up. Have you heard from them yet? -
I stay in Bukit Batok. Would any parents from hill view, upper by tomahawk of by Batok area like to car pool? Either take turns to fetch or everyone pay one mum who will fetch daily?
Frankly I’m sick of the bus service in RGPS -
Hi, school bus operator called and said they will pick my gal at 6.30am… I live at Shelford… May reconsider to walk her to school.

Yah. Better f walking.

It seems the school bus fee is much more expensive than other schools’.

The bus operator sent confirmation about 1 week back. My DD on bus 4 one way is $130/mth

Hi all,
DD is starting P1 2016 and bus operator just informed us last week that pick up is at 5:30am (!). Currently on waitlist for the premium service but no takers for our area (Queenstown) yet so we might drop her off at school instead. -
My daughter is on bus 3

Can any mummy please share what will happen during P1 orientation tomorrow? Are the girls expected to turn up in their uniforms and white shoes?
