Transportation needed to get kids to school

Posted by travellust (102 days ago)

I live in Clear Water Bay. My two young girls are going to school in Kowloon Tong. The school's bus company just told me to plan on having the kids outside waiting for the bus one hour and 45 minutes before school start time. This is too long for my five and eight year old to sit on a bus. I do not have a car, but am willing to pay for transportation. I need leads.

you might be able to arrange with a taxi driver to pick them up every day for a set fee. there are many that do it like that. not sure what it would cost you though.

If you actually name the school, you might find a parent on here that takes children to that particular school and lives in your area and that would be willing to do it for petrol money. Or you travel by taxi with you kids.
its not unusal to have kids on school buses for well over an hour here.

hi ! My two kids go to school in Kowloon Tong, and I live in CB. PM me... I have info on private school buses too... you don't HAVE to take it from the school's official buses. I also have taxi drivers in CB that you can rely on.

My kids are going to the American International School on Waterloo Road in Kowloon Tong. We live on the campus of HKUST in Clear Water Bay. School hours are 8:15 to 3:15. I would be happy to pay someone to take my kids to school one way or roundtrip. PM me if anyone is interested. The school's bus has my kids sitting in transit 3.5 hours a day!
