So nice.

My DD1 will be the guinea pig

Eh.... How did you know i used in lower primary? :boogie:

BINGO :rahrah:
My bus was like the SBS' double decker height or should i say the size of a bus to malaysia?
But there's a lot of different sizes for buses @ HWS. There is even a van size.

I had never seen my previous bus uncle since i was primary 4 when school has moved to current location. But i remembered that he give us food like chips during celebration and always tell jokes. He is a cheerful one.
Every bus uncle are different. But mostly will be entertaining, sometimes we can't aviod some fierocious as they can't stand our volume(noisy).
The bus service fees are like .... urmm... let me recall for a while...
:idea: Ta--da~ $80--$120 morning and afternoon (when you are dismissed)
Any queries? I think i will not give too much because it might be different from previous. :slapshead:

Thanks for sharing, Still trying to decide if I want to use the school bus.

Hi helping hand, until how old did you take school bus? do you stay nearby school? i am wondering how long do i need to get school bus service.


Hi sahm tan, during orientation i paid for school bus at $60 per month and also must pay december holiday so total $120. The driver and helper very good, showed DS where to wait and paste a sticker with bus number on the name tag. This is for identification and make sure the student don’t get lost. For days with cca, just top up $1.50 for special pick up from bus driver.

Please consider my advice:
Primary 1--3 let them use bus. Let them use public transport P4---P6
BTW, what is the gap between the 2 kids you have? :rahrah:

Her bro is 4yos and sis is 16mos.

I'm deciding between ferrying her myself or school bus. If I do it myself I will slim down with the daily exercise :rotflmao:

I have to study her bro's schedule before deciding.
