Travelling to school

The school has 63 buses to transport teachers and students from home, they pick you up from your door and drop you off there after school. Maddy and I get picked up first in the morning at 6:45 am and arrive at school around 7:45 am. The alternative is to drive (not going to happen there was a crash on the way to school again today) or get a taxi (approx LE 32 about £4) which is too expensive for us.

On the way home we get dropped off first at about 4 pm which is very nice. Geoff listens for the bus and buzzes the entrance door open so I don't even have to get my keys out.

The buses collect in they playground and it takes about 15 mins for the kids to load up and the buses to leave. If you want to stay later you have to sign up for the 'late bus' the day before which leaves at 4:30 pm and another at 5pm if necessary.
