Hi, does anyone know the name of the student care from MS? I am exploring for my son. Thank you.

I think you are referring to TLC which is located opposite MS (at Bartley Christian Church). If so, contact Mr Tan @ 93663882.

DS have lunch at the canteen after school and then take a bus to TLC. (tea time at around 4pm, biscuits and water).

So not much change to lunch timing, although do notice less appetite during dinner, maybe its due to excitement for first day.

Thanks papaya dad, will call up and ask. They need a bus to ferry the kids? Cos I know the church is only across the road. Do you need to pay seperately for the bus?


BTW, I am really keen to exchange contacts with any parents of students in Class 1I. DS is the really blur sort, so would be happy to have another parents to compare notes on announcements/ events/ homeworks or just teacher's instructions. Please do PM me to exchange contacts. Many thanks.

The bus is included.

I can’t believe that my boy got "left" behind by the teachers yesterday during school dismissal. The teachers didn’t know that he is walking home, so left him at the bus queue. Then he waited all by himself for 30mins, even after the buses have left! Then my maid was waiting at the side door for so long, but she couldn’t get in. Any suggestions how to deal with this? Hopefully this doesn’t happen again!

24hr-mum:

anyone wf kids in 1F or takg sch bus 17?

DS in 1F but not in bus 17. Why?

Yes, my son also in 1F but not taking bus 17...we walk home...

Good grief, your poor boy. Hope he wasn't too upset. You need to tell the school/teacher in charge. My son was asked how he was getting home. Although I had briefed him like ten times, he still had to call me. :roll:


BTW, there IS a coin phone in the school (not sure where) so there is no need to buy a Singtel card. Better they lose a few coins than one whole card.

Cherrygal, thanks for replying about the PE shorts. I think I better go look closer for pockets!

I went to school today to see how they dismiss the kids.

There are good and bad points.
Primary one kids board the bus first but wait in the bus for around 20mins before the rest of the students are released.
I come to realise many school buses are fully packed. One parent that I bumped into told me her son Sch bus even have standing students!

The school bus that my son take does not practise putting on the seat belt.
They put 3 boys to two seats. I think that is that reason for not able to use the seat belt. Fairly concern about their safety especially for those that sit near the door.
