Hi justmewayne,


Is it possible for you to share with us what you did during the gap year in year 4 and what other options do year4s have? Thanks.

This morning took my ds to take public transport to RI and realised tt the gate facing the Bishan road is only open from 5.45 am to 7.45 am during school days.

Hi MandyMummy, my batch did not go through the gap semester. However, my juniors (Year 4s next year) will be experiencing it next year. From what I have heard, they will either have Overseas Immersion Programme, Work Exposure, or a modified Differentiated Modules Programme.

Your son will be able to enter outside of the 5.45 - 7.45 timeslot with a registered EZ-Link card (notice the card scanner located at the right side of the gate). By the first 2 weeks of January your son's card should be registered and he'll have access.

Besides, if your son is exiting school, it's always open from the inside.

Also, it's good that you're letting your son be independent and take public transport.
