Heard from my mum that they allowed caregivers to wait at canteen yesterday (from gate 5). Things were much improved although she does fear that my kids won't know where to find her in the canteen. will continue to monitor the situation.


A problem is that caregivers tend to stand right in front of the gate, thereby creating a squeeze. I suggested to hubby that perhaps they need to draw a yellow box (like the ones on road to prevent cars from stopping), but he told me perhaps pp will start thinking it's a smoking corner. :stupid: :slapshead:

Good to read that the school acted. I was not there so not aware of the change.


Hmmmm..... Yellow box, maybe spray the words no standing and no smoking within the box?

In English, and Chinese...and maybe Tagalog and Bahasa Indo? :siam:

or maybe restrict the caregivers to wait ACROSS the zebra crossing and the kids can walk out of the gate when they spot their caregivers. meanwhile, someone will have to jaga the road.

Maybe use graphic easier for all to understand LOL. Then no need to use so many languages.

Doubt waiting across the road is a good alternative becos that strip of shelter not much space to accommodate the adults too.

I observed that Gate 6 is closed for the time being. I think that also account for the squeeze. Plus with the barricades, making all feel very closed in.

I think if adults spread out, would resolve the problem.

Or or make a bigger gate 5, I know not possible. If the size of the gate determine the spread of the crowd, a bigger gate will mean the crowd will spread out more. Heehee.

Still think it will help if adults DON’T stand in front of the gate. But I hear there are some who will purposedly park themselves right in front. I am impressed they don’t think they actually hinder traffic.


Yup, think Gate 6 is closed. DS1 told me P4s and below he is not worried about size; but P5/6 he will not be able to go through (because they are bigger).

Not sure what else the school can do to help. I wouldn't want too many strangers in the school.

I'm happy that on rainy days, the school allows the adults to go in to pick up the kids.

On non-rainy days, let the adults solve it bah.
