      Hi, I have a question on logistics. What is the best way to get from a Circle Line MRT station to DHS?


      From the map, I see a bus-stop right outside the school. But there is only 1 bus service, 158. Is this bus service frequent?

      The bus-stop on Fort Road - how long do you take to walk there from DHS?

      We are interested in DHS, but the journey there does not seem to be convenient?

      Thanks
      Most students would drop at Moubatten Station and take a 10 mins walk through the entrance in front of the library.

        Yes, Mountbatten Stn - walk abt 10~15 min. You can also take 158 outside the stn.

        During term time, I believe the school has made special arrangement with SBS. During peak, there is an addition bus 158A looping between Aljunied Rd (Aljunied Stn) - Tanjong Rhu in the morning as well as in the afternoon during those hours when class are dismiss. Sometimes, you can also see these buses waiting along the road beside the school field.

        From Fort Rd to DHS, I believe is abt 5~10 min walk.

                For yr2 subject combination, pupils will receive application forms via their DHS email.
                Submission is via online.....

                U are given 3 choices for sbj combi and 2 choices for subjects which u wish to be enriched in (subject to approval).
                The selection criteria for enrichment is based on your subject's grade, teacher's recommendation, acheivements in competitions related to that subject, etc.....

                For 3 sciences and 1 hunanities, this is under 8 units..
                Pupils with min GPA of 2.8 will be eligible for 8 units....else can only take 7 units....
                Pupils taking MEP or AEP or 3 rd lang who still want 3 Sciences will require GPA of 3.2 and above.....
