School Bus

The two CIS campuses are located in Singapore and are easily accessible from the main residential areas of the island.

To ensure our students can get to and from School efficiently, CIS organises a door-to-door bus transport service through the independent third party bus service provider Goh Transport Services Co. Pte. Ltd. Goh Transport's bus service covers most residential areas in Singapore.

CIS strives to ensure each bus is a safe and pleasant environment for everyone. All school buses have seat belts. A full breakdown of the routes and costs are outlined in the pricelist which can be found at the bottom of this page.

If you wish to enroll your child for the bus service, please contact Ms Ee Poh or Mrs Ang to make arrangements or for any queries.
