actually I received the call 1 week ago. We decided to send my son to school in the morning. For the afternoon, he will take the schoolbus. At least this is what we will do for the first few months since the bus operator said that the seat will be reserve for him anyway. It is only 10% less for one way. You should call them to find out.

Here is the number to call:
Mdm Tan - 6789 3775

Thanks bigfoot.
Ya am still contemplating whether one way or two way. Just worried the about the bad traffic condition in the morning outside school, may just opt for two way instead but that will mean we will hv to wake up very much earlier.

We are gonna fetch him to and fro, at least for the first few months and gauge how troublesome it is gonna be. If we cannot tahan, then it would be 2-way school bus hahaha.


So exciting… 2 more weeks to go…

BTW, I didn’t get the phone card. So guess I would have to save all my 10-cent coins for him.

Anyone knows where the coin phone is located? I only saw the card phone at the canteen.

Yes, I am excited too. Am thinking is it so important to have coins or phonecard? I believe the office will surely allow the kids to call if there is an emergency right? Anyway, my DS still doesn't know how to make phonecall yet. Must teach him.

Cherrygal, how do u intend to drive to school from Shunfu? Which way is better in your opinion? I have two options. Go via AMK Ave 1 or Braddell Rd. If go via AMK Ave 1, shd we turn right Lor Chuan into Serangoon or continue to go straight? There is just so many ways to get there but we are not sure which way to go. Maybe we shd ask the bus driver since they shd know better? :?

may i ask, i saw a side gate at bartley mrt bus stop. does it lead to the sch? the facade along the mrt is it the pri or sec section?


the side next to mt vernon / aljunied, is it pri or sec section?

is it a long walk from eg sec to pri section?

Yes, the gate at the bus-stop leads to the school. The building along bartley is the pri section whereas the one at Mt Vernon is the sec section.

The pri and sec sections are just adjacent to each other. The combined school compound is rather big. In what context are you trying to establish whether is it a far walk?
If you are considering walking from the MRT to the school, it is definitely nearer to walk from the MRT to the pri section than to the sec section. However, there is a pathway conveniently sheltered the boys all the way from the side-gate to both the pri section or the sec section.

thanks. seems like the sch building linkage is all well-designed. sheltered n underground walkway. i’m sure MSH wil be more popular next yr wif the circle line.

[24hr-mum]

just curious, at dismissal time, r the parents supp to wait outside the side gaten or are they allowed to enter the sch to wait for the boy eg at canteen?


where does that temple-like facade entrance along bartley lead to? sec or pri section? ie the main entrance

are the kids allowed to keep textbks in sch? got locker?
