Have to vent. Go the biggest scare ever since having airlifted our son at 6 months to Singapore for a medical emergency.
Today the school lost our son & he was lost for 5 hours. I found out because the half day school bus didn't drop him home at 12:05. Called in and they told me he never arrived at the classroom!!! He is 2 1/2!!
He boarded the bus this morning with his big sister. There is a bus monitor on the bus!! The bus has only 6 little kids to bring back and forth from school Had the most scariest 2 hours at school where everybody from the principal to the guards were looking for him. In the beginning I already told them to contact the bus driver + monitor and after 2 hours they finally did!! He was forgotten in the bus & been left at the bus depot!! It is freaking 35 degrees celsius in SH and freakingly hot. Luckily he is home now and playing and no bad healthy signs. I am so blessed that he is home but tomorrow I am going on the war path and heads will roll. Apparently the school safety protocols aren't working!! This is am expensive international school and a year in pre-school can pay a student's tuition for Cambridge in the UK!!!
Ok vented, big head ache and gonna scrap mabye...............
Oh Wow!! How this even happens is beyond me!! Especially as they don't have many little ones!! I would definitely be making a complaint! Huge hugs to you all it must have been so worrying !! Glad he is ok !
Oh. My. Gosh. That is un-freakin-believable. I can't imagine that anyone is going to be able to say or do anything to make up for what you experienced today. Was he in the bus depot ALL DAY or just after school?

That is sooo scary. I'm so glad he was found, and is back home, safe and sound. Very scary, but even worse when you add the temperature to that combination.
Tom is ok and sleeping now. But told me he was scared and it was dark and although he cried nobody came :-(
Tomorrow he will meet with the school's counselor. But he was playing this evening and no dehydration signs pppheew
Thank you all for your support and being able for me to vent and let it out.
Kellie: he was from 8:15 am - 13:45 in the bus of which most of the time at the depot which has a roof and that has been our luck.
As he was buckled in he couldn't reach for his bag as well as they place the bag at another chair :-(
Lots of checks didn't work today but luckily we enrolled him only half days as he still need to turn 3 so I found out he was missing at 12:17. Would I found out after a normal school day at 15:30 then it could have been worse.
OMG. I would be decapitating people in my war path too! I am sure you know how lucky you are and how HORRIBLE this could have been. I think that is the path you need to take. Do NOT let them take the "but he is OK" approach or the "thank goodness nothing bad happen". A HORRIBLE thing did happen, and next time a kid may NOT be as lucky as him. TAKE it HARD and make some head ROLL FOR SURE!
