Huh ? Reach school by 7am ?
We leave at 645am and reach at about 710am. Still exploring the safer route to walk.

Janet, you take 25 mins to reach school? That's very long... Just curious, by foot, by bus or by car?

We walk to school. Slow walk. I think we reach his school backgate at 7am and not 710am. 710am is the time he is IN the hall.[/quote]Oh I see.. by the way, do you know what time the back gate opens and closes? I have been sending DD by front gate this year, but thought I should know the timing of back gate, just in case...

We walk across the badminton court. Have to be very careful as cars drive rather fast...try to walk in the void deck but due to lift upgrading, it's not possible to do so all the way.

Where is the badminton court? The lift grading makes some pesdestrian walkways inaccessible. Any idea when the lift grading along the blks near the back gate will be completed?

I found this onemap. Is the tail end of Lor Kismis linked to Toh Yi Rd? I shld try out walking the route first.

Jennifer,

You can actually walk from Blk 12 Toh Yi all the way to school back gate.

Happy Mama,
Back gate opens at 645am and closes at 730am.

The badminton court is in front of Blk 9 Toh Yi Drive.

The slopes to the back gate, can be quite a challenge

your command of English is excellent

Haha, you must be kidding and don't let my dd hear this. She'll correct my English at home. I speak more mandarin at home to my girls and terribly broken English to my maid, if not, she won't be able to understand me. Haha... :lol: :lol: :lol:

Think if I walk daily from new place to sch/mkt, I will lose my spare tyre very soon :lol:

We are moving to Signature Park (the blk nearer to the Toh Tuck exit).

Told my boy we wld try walking to sch first.

This morning my elder boy told me he recd an sms from sch that on every Wed, he needs to reach sch by 7am. He is so glad that we are moving nearer to his sch too.

Reach sch by 7am is for my elder boy's CCA meeting or whatever, luckily it is only once a week. Other days are the normal sch hours 7.40am with Thurs 8plus am.

U walk to the back gate?

I thought of walking out from Toh Tuck Rd, cut across to the back gate. But no idea on how to cut across yet?[/quote]Jennifer, if you are walking out from Toh Tuck Road, no point using the back gate. It is faster to use the side gate.

1) First, you walk from Signature Park along Toh Tuck Road, all the way to the junction of Toh Tuck Road and Jln Jurong Kechil.
2) Walk from the junction to one of the small road before ESSO.

since there are MRT work going on near the market, i would suggest the following route, safer and shorter...
3) turn right from the junction, 50m turn left to one of the HDB block behind ESSO, the one with police post...
4) walk straight till you reach the market...
5) from there, there is path leading to the side gate....

Thanks, Janet.

Can walk from Toh Yi Rd to blk 11? Last week hubby drove us to the back gate. I find that stretch of road along blk 12, 9 and 5 many cars sending PH children too. Am thinking of blk 11, 8, then 6- also leads to back gate.

Hahaha... No choice, when it comes to maids... My DD can even speak and understand slight Malay. I was shocked when she first spoke in Malay at the age of 4 to the maid! :lol: :lol:
