Yeah... New HPPS Mum very fast


I chked and my fees from Jurong West is $110 per month.... hmmm... at least this is cheaper than her pre-school bus a year ago

However, still not able to order books online or see the book list for HPPS from Pacific Book store... I called and they say book list not received yet. Maybe it'll be uploaded online these few days

Dadelina,
Ur kid taking bus no 35?
My son used to take that, like the uncle very friendly.

:yikes: :yikes: The bus journey is too long for my girl. Gotta wait at 11am! Gosh, her school starts at 1pm and a day at 1.30pm .... faint

:yikes: :yikes:

GPTeacher,
That's normal for kids staying far away.
BTW, Wed though the sch starts in 1:30pm, but the bus would comes 15-20 mins earlier so that they will be in sch on time to pick up the morning session at 12pm. How much are you quoted? BTW, it is 2 way or 1 way?

[GPTeacher]

I'm quoted $100 one way and $160 for 2 way but the driver prefers we take 1 way.


That means my girl would spend 1 hr in school and she's not one who can buy healthy lunch and consume it diligently. Looks like I've to activate plan B

hmmm :idea:

That's what I thought so. Previously I was quoted $90 for 1 way to AMK too, but ended up didn't take as my son got CCAs ended up not worth taking on 3 times a week only for that $90.

I dun think will spend 1hr in sch, maybe 45mins plus they have reading time for the kids in the sch hall. During my son time, they can sign up for this 10 weeks chinese lesson conducted by the external operator on Wednesday.


Curious what's ur plan B?

[GPTeacher]

just888,


So, what did you do in the end? Did you bring your child to school and back home everyday?

Plan B - Take MRT via Circle line to Buona Vista and take a bus there
Plan C - Shift nearer

Currently, we have yet to try out Plan B to estimate the journey time but we will likely try Plan B and C concurrently. Actually thinking of them tires me ... :snooze:

I was being quoted $90(Bukit Panjang to HPPS) under Bus 18 but I forgot to ask whether this rate is based on one-way or two-ways. Driver advised pick-up time around 11.15am but to be re-confirmed.

[New HPPS Mum]

To avoid the crowd on 05 & 12 Nov, I have headed down to Bibi & Baba at Shaw Centre to purchase the uniforms for my DS. The shop staff told me to get one pc of gym shorts for the Gymnastics Programme. I was being advised that the name tag colour will be in brown for Year 2012.

GPTeacher,

Plan C, wah… housing are rather pricey there.

Since I became a SAHM in Jun, I am using plan B - bus, mrt and bus to fetch my boy from sch. Before that he was taking sch bus and on 2 days for CCAs he would return home around 7:30pm. Very ke lian to be away from home from 6am - 7:30pm. Then during the earlier 1/2 half of the year we missed out some sch activities planned for him due to no one fetch him home after sch activities.
