Little Skool House

[toddles]

I went to LSH in tampines too, but my experience was quite different.


The principal showed me around and patiently explained the curriculum and timetable.

I liked the place, the large play area, the new toilets and the classrooms. Principal seemed like she knew her stuff too, although young.

But the location is too far for me, and prefer some outdoor play (which they don’t offer), so probably won’t be taking it up either.

Perhaps when the class is already full, they just feel there’s less of a point in introducing what cannot be taken up.

after the disappointing display at tampines lsh, i almost did not turn up at fidelio street's little skool house. it would have been to my losEs if i did not go.


the principal is really a patient and sincere lady. she took time to sit me down and went through the curriculum and all other basic information. her answers were very clear and positively put across. she really impressed me.

the school was also recently 'revamped' and it was good to see a spacious dance studio and a fun-looking playground.

however, the teacher for the toddlers' class looked quite upset (assistant teacher was on leave) as she was handling about 8 children alone in the room. hmm... that was the main concern that I had, otherwise I would have just registered my child there and then.

My girl was from little skool house ! Withdrawl her already cos they keep changing teachers and upon a few times shortage of teachers! That made me really upset! Paying this kind private rate of fee! But couldn't get what I want! Principal was warmth , teachers very caring too ( but leaving soon)! So upset! Place was airy but rather hot during afternoon cos sunset! Overall a nice place but really teachers problem only!

you can't have the best of everything, I guess.

in fact, i felt the high school fee does not really means high-standard childcare. In fact, what I expected from cc is care and love rather than the facilities. One "high-end" school might have very beautiful gardens and playground, but it means nothing to kids especially those under 6 years old. What they need is attention, care, bonding …


what is the conclusion that I drawed from having experience in a HDB neighborhood cc (charge $250) and a private cc (charge like $700).

Hi,


Anyone like to share feedback on LSH @ Semb-Place?

TIA

After 3 days at LSH Tamp, we withdrew our little one from there.

faeriekim:

all i can say that my visit to the lsh at tampines was a let down. even though i made an appointment to be at the school, the principal and another staff seemed surprised when i mentioned i was there by appointment. principal didn't even bother to introduce herself and started bringing me around to show off the premises.

basically, there was very little eye contact, a careless attitude, definite lack of sincerity and interest. i was repeatedly told that the toddlers' class is full. and was even corrected on the definition of what 'no waiting list' was.

it doesn't mean that a spacious school with nice, new hardware can replace the lack of warmth.

it was in all a wasted trip. waste of my time and effort.

During 1st day, we witness other kid crying as is his first day.
But he wasnt attended to but continue to cry at one corner. Until later he stopped and then he start to join the other kids.
Perhaps our expectation was for newly joined kids, they will get more attention.
On 2nd day, our kid's turn to cry and same thing, he wasnt attended to and left to cry. The teachers were busy getting into the routine of singing and dancing with the other kids.
I also saw one of the non-Sg teacher having her MacDonalds breakfast in class.
On 3rd day, our son cried again. This time, the same non-sg teacher stared at him and even used a wooden puzzle block to knock on the table infront of him. And the best thing is, we were there. What if we were not? To stop a kid from crying by staring at him and knock on the table?? To us, we don't think that is suitable.
Infact, since the 2nd day, our son had nightmares and diarrhea so we thought of pull him out first.
Meanwhile we are looking at CM @ Pasir Ris and wonder is anyone has any feedback ?
