      Yes, I have enrol for pre-nursery 2015. Actually u can enrol ur son Perez-nursery this year which my friend just did. Her daughter joining in next term July .... And yes punggol/ SengKang very limited vacancies ... To think I started to source so early many church kindergarten has already no more slots.... Zzzz I would say limited kindergartens available now.

      Hi, the person in charge also told me that I can register for pre nursey this year. May I know how much is pre nursery fees for your friend who start on July? I called many cc at punngol all are already full. So hopefully next week I can enrol for nursey class if not need to see mp...

      $660 per term 🙂

        IMHO, if you have other choices of school which is more accessible, just take it... It really doesnt matter sending them to 'branded' preschool or normal one since all the kids will be sent to enrichment too... Yes.. Even kids from branded school 😛

        Plus beside the accesibility, which bring forward problems with theschool bus, the school also expensive.. Everything has extra charge ; racial harmony pay more for the food that they will serve to reflect sg's races, every term parents supposed to bring 2 box of tissues, CNY pay, and the excursion they take the kids is quite limited. So far in K1 n K2, they took the kid to giant again... So my gal has been to giant 2 yrs in a row..
        Then I really cantcommunicate very easily with the form teachersince we dont see each other unless if I decided to pop by and no comm book or anything.. Just can call which means we really has no clue what's goin on in the class.. So yes the school looks nice and all but I seriously think childrenshould have more spaces to moveabout.. This school is bit overcrowded now and all the classes in the tall building ..when they hv the 24th Ave it's nice.... Sorry for the long rant 🙂 hope it helps !!

                Hi,


                Just felt like sharing my experiences with Dayspring as my daughter has been there since pre-nursery and she’s in K2 this year. We started off at 24th Ave and it was a pleasant little hideout albeit a little out of the way. She moved to the 17th Ave since nursery I think. Form teachers (1 English and 1 Chinese per class) change every year but they have been mostly warm (except for an English teacher who was a little lacking in that aspect) and caring.

                Where curriculum is concerned, the school does well. At K1, my girl has both Chinese and English spelling every week. It was good practice and she took pride in mastering them. They were given weekly homework too and it could be easily completed within 10-15 minutes at home. The school has weekly swimming / water play for 1-2 terms in a year where there is no additional charge. The additional charges like racial harmony day celebration, etc were more like a token (a couple of dollars) IMO.

                My girl enjoys school and looks forward to special activities. Of course, she does have her fair share of conflicts with certain classmates but that’s part of growing up and we try our best to help her manage such situations and also communicate with her teachers.

                The Principal welcomes feedback and she is accessible. I’ve spoken to her on the phone to express my concerns (e.g. concert timing and rehearsals) over certain practices and also to clarify other things (e.g. learning hanyu pinyin as part of curriculum). She may not be the best PR person but I appreciated that she listens and tries to improve where possible.

                At the end of the day, I know my girl will be well prepared for primary school. The school ensures that their charges know how to write, read and spell properly. The school provides opportunities for their charges to express themselves with confidence. I’m a working mom and feel pretty assured that my daughter’s preschool education is well taken care of.
