[Clementi/Pasir Panjang/Sunset Way/West Coast] Preschools

cheetian:

Hubby and I had gone down to the school for viewing...we were totally taken aback by the calmness of the school...so so different from mainstream CC, the students there looked so discipline and independent....and all of them knew what to do (did not see any child walking aimlessly... all of them looked like \"little adults\"

we were asked to be seated at a corner of the classroom to observe how the children work with their materials... not long after one of the students walked up to us and served us a cup of water...(cannot imagine my little one doing all these...she is so rough hahaha)...
oh and the best part was whenever I call up the school to fix an appointment with the principal Ms Fee, my call was always answered by one of the students in the school and it's so heartwarming to hear these little kids taking down ur messages.... :rahrah: :rahrah:
This school really teaches the students real life skills....

Outdoor area was also cool....they have a big play area as well...

Does the school look run down?? IMO not at all....it has a very homely kind of setting instead....it is by far the best montessori school I have ever been...hope my girl will love her school and hope mummy's decision is not wrong too.

However the con side...school bus fee is rather steep.... :nunchuk:

This reminds me of a mother's day tea that was organised last year (i think). All the children (including N2s) served their mummies tea. They carried the china teacups and saucers filled with tea on a tray from the kitchen to the tables where we sat. I think all the moms were holding our collective breath as our children walked out. But there were no accidents and they were wonderfully proud of themselves .

My DS is in Primary 1 now and has adjusted well to primary school. I think the Montessori education gave him a good grounding in english, math and chinese, so the academic aspect of school has been quite painless, thank goodness! He's also been back to EYM to do a show and tell of what primary 1 life is like for the K2 kids.

hi,

Any views on Moden Montessori at west coast/ International Business Park? Our child is 12 months and we are evaluating to send him to a playgroup when he turns 18 months

Mommies, I just sent in a request to tour Early Years Montessori. It is pretty near our new place in west coast area. My son will be in K1 by next year. He knows his phonics and knows a few sight words, but not reading. I know Montessori schools have reading program, may I ask, do you send your children for "reading program" besides after school?

Vivek, MMI @ West Coast is a Childcare Centre.
