Hi All,
We will be landing towards the end of December 2017. Could someone help out with a schedule of the school. Kids are in 4th and 2nd grade.
I will be staying on the main camp with kids attending the Aramco compound schools.
- What dates are the winter vacations? - What are the timings of the school? - Do kids typically come home for lunch? - are there school buses for pick-up drop?
Thanks in advance.

Yes, kids come home for lunch. Yes there is a bus srvice, although if you live close enough to the school to walk, then there is not bus service for those living close to the schools. The kids may also participate in lunch time clubs or activities and they take their lunch that date or buy lunch at the snack bar.

Are you living on camp, NeelRuP? If yes, the Aramco calender is linked above. All the schools follow their own schedule, so if not living on camp, you will need to look at the web sites if schools you are interested in.
The 2 big British schools are DBGS and BISAK. Other big ones are DEMS (shared campus with DBGS, but American), and IPS which is IB. All are popular, and have limited spaces and possibly waiting lists.
