Yes thats the best idea. but do note that bus does not just depend on distance but on routes he has to cover - and hence may change over time .

From what i see, those from Bukit timah , bukit batok - leave as early as 5:45 to 6 am in the morning to reach HPPS.
Personally i feel that is straining for kids that young - remember from P5 they probably stay back in school ATLEAST 3 days to include CCA, Enrichment/sups. Plus you may have tutions after school enrichment.
IMHO totally detrimental to a childs growth. But then thats me.

Plus it depends on the kid - if he is the strong and strudy type it may be easier- and you surely have ur own reason for choosing a school that far , but do take the time to think this through.

Just my 2 cents....

Hey, same problem I had 2 years ago. Started DS on school bus, but we did it one way as the morning pick up time of 6am is too early! So we send him there instead in the morning and he takes the school bus back in the afternoon. Cost us $100 per month for one way in the afternoon. After 6 months, DS switch to public bus as we realized he only take the school bus once a week because of his activities in the afternoon. And the one off pickup off the normal time is not guarantee and cost ~$5-10, can't remember the exact. He is in P5 now, and was transfer from another school. If yours is joining at P1, you should seriously consider the logistic arrangement, it a pain,
