Bussing
CDNIS is committed to the safety and well-being of our commuters, being courteous and conscientious neighbours, and to complying with the recommendations of local authorities; including the Southern District Council and the Education Bureau. Our bussing programme provides convenient and safe transportation for our commuters while minimizing the volume of private and hired vehicle congestion on Nam Long Shan Road; the sole emergency vehicle access to our school and for our neighbours. Families may enrol their child(ren) in the school bus service via the KCM website.
