Yes, I also received the notice regarding the increase in school bus fee :sad: Discuss with DH and DD1 - next year DD1 is P5 and most days she needs to stay back in school for supplementary classes, CCA practices, etc..Therefore, we decide that she shall take the public transport to and fro from school. DD1 is so happy - she finds that she has been \"promoted\" to a \"young adult\" DD2 will still continue to take the school bus since she will only be P2 next year and needs not stay back for any extra activities.

wow champs. happy for your dd1 too! can picture her with her smile.

:hugs: Kabby. Yes, she has been coming home from CCA / supplementary classes via the public transport this year so we feel it is time to let her go \"full-time\" on the public transport. In fact, she has a group of buddies going home together with her so I guess it will be fun too...But, we have to remind her about safety on the road as well as on the bus; although it sounds naggy to her but I will still repeat them constantly

[Kabby]

yes, yes, indeed! the constant reminders are important.


ds1 takes bus home also, if his CCA ends late. I always worry about that junction at the main road as the traffic is heavy and travels at high speeds sometimes

[Champion]

Yes, Kabby ..agrees that the main road both way leading to and coming from PIE, the vehicles sometimes travel at a very high speed ..I am a little kiasu - told DD1 she MUST pause, turn right to look at the stopping vehicles even that the \"green man\" light signal is on.

Dear parents,


I went to the P1 orientation yesterday with DD and got very fustrated with the school bus provider. They couldn’t tell me exactly where’s the pickup point, the pickup time or explain properly why they need to collect fee for january and december even thought DD won’t be using the service ntil january. So i just want to ask whether anyone here knows the pickup point and time for the Jurong West st 51 area? How reliable is their service, i.e. are they on time, are they safe? If anyone can explain the fee regulation, that would great too.

Another question i have is about ordering school uniform. The vendor wasn’t there yesterday, so the teachers gave us an ordering form with the upcoming sales dates. Anyone know whether i need to order online first or can just turn up on the day to get the uniforms? I would like to bring my DD to check the sizing before buying. Also, do we have to buy the black shoes and shocks from the vendor or any black shoes will do?

Many thanks for your help.
