DESIGNATED AREA FOR
                  PICK UP AND DROP OFF

There will only be one point of entry and exit to the school premise, which is from Blk 41.
This means that all parents will have to send and fetch their child from this point
only. Parents are only allowed to drop their child at the holding area. No other entry or
exit will be available as the mosque premise is still closed. Above is the photo for your
reference.
STAGGERED ARRIVAL
To minimize the density of crowds during arrival time, we will be implementing a
staggered arrival arrangement (for children who are not taking school transport).

greatly appreciate in your kind cooperation. Children with siblings can come
together and will be following the earliest time slot.
