Default How long to get from Mirdif to Georges Pompidou in Sharjah?

I'm wondering if anyone knows how long a school bus would take to get to and from the Ecole primaire Georges Pompidou in Sharjah from Mirdif. I think it might be near Finefare (not certain) but I'll try to attach a link of its location.

The enrollment officer at the school says around 30 minutes. But I just want to check before I send them my money!!

Thanks in advance,
barbamama

As you are going against the main traffic flow, its much quicker from Mirdif to Sharjah early morning than going the opposite way. However, it will still probably take 45-60 minutes and possibly longer coming home.

The school in Dubai is full unfortunately. The kids will be off school around 2 pm or so....would there really be that much traffic coming back?

Thanks once again to you all.

So how long to get from Midrif or Jumeriah to Al Ain? Are they closer or further to Al Ain from Dubai? Thanks! It says they are opening new schools in those places.
