Nursery to year 13.
How do most children get to school everyday? (bus, train, walk, etc.)
Mostly by car, some by bus and few walk. I do see some early year kids going by bus and they are very tired end of the day travelling far from places like Hartamas. I don't feel that journey is worth for the little kids. A good kindy near home would be better.
