Bus service
The administration has made it mandatory for students to avail the school bus service to ensure lesser number of vehicles in the area. In case a parent wishes to pick up the child from school, he/she has to notify the authorities in advance and get an approval from them. Also, if a driver or servant is sent for the same, the person needs to show the authorised letter at the gate; only then the child is allowed to leave.
School speaks
Principal Meera Isaacs said, "The school has 52 buses, but all can't be parked in the same lane. We also have staggered timings so that students don't come out at the same time. Availing the school-bus service is mandatory to ensure fewer cars outside. We also encourage car-pooling. As the school is right inside a commercial centre, the traffic issues are unavoidable"
