[quote=\"chloecube\"]hihi,


i am actually looking at car pool too. i have 2 kids in NAPS, P1 and P4. staying in tampines.
the issue here is, my P4 stays back in school for CCA and remedial every Wed and Fri. my P1 is Monday CCA and wed neuromath.

kind of hard to arrange yah??

So how is your transportation arrangement at the moment?

my maid will take a bus from tampines to school and fetch them back in bus. on days where they have to stay back, wed and friday, i get her to take a cab instead. else kids will be tired by the time they reach home.
thus a car pool to share the cost will be better.

school bus charge me $130 for one way each child. and i have to pay extra $5 each trip if they stay back in school.
after doing my sum, its not worth it. moreover, i still have to pay during school holiday.[/quote]By the way why are you sending your kids to study in marine parade when you stay in tampines?

Hi daniel_tancl,

Hmm..better pack some snacks for them for after sch while waiting for the bus.

Any parents sending kids to student care? I tot it will be full hse. But the after sch care seem very empty..

Hi Terry, my DD will be in P1 next yr. Thinking of sending her to student care. You have seen the after sch care and it looks empty?

Ngee ann is my ex-school.

near my house, there are only 2 schools , one need to ballot and the percentage of getting in is low, i have no guts to take the risk.
i am not really like the other school.

hmm, not really, they mentioned a few times that weather is hot.
it can be tough when it rain too.
i will get my maid to take a cab when it rains and during days they have remedial or cca

bus journey home take abt 1.15hr
we drive them to school in the morning. they wake up at 6.30am, we leave the house before 7am and reach school 7.25am.

I didn't go for the open house and was worrying whether there'll be vacancy in the after-sch care, seems like my worry is unfounded..

[chloecube]

they take public bus, not school bus

DS used to take school bus when he was in P1 but i withdrew him after that

It should be a Wednesday if you saw p1s having maths (neuromaths). Most of the older students would have been having their CCAs then, that’s mostly likely why there are only a few students.
