Hi toddles

in Bridges Montessori which is stone's throw from home.
Rachelmum

Just called the centre today. Bridges Montessori is a kindergarden. For those who are interested. Their fees are:-

Half day 8:30 - 12:30 - $1200
Full day 8:30 - 2:00 - $2100 (with enrichment)

As the fees quite steep for my current income. I'll have to give it a miss.

Is that per month or per term? usually they charge per 10 week term?

Hi

anyone has feedback on montessori for children at Mountbatten? or twinkle stars montessori at marine parade?
Understand that the former require students to b toilet-trained but my son (coming 3 this sept) isn’t exactly well-trained yet so I’m still hesitant to enrol him.
My queries are:
1. Are the teachers gd n patient there?
2. Do these 2 schools prepare kids well enough for them to proceed to p1 academically? Do we need to send them for additional enrichment classes?
3. How abt the Chinese standards?
4. I read Montessori provide almost 1 to 1 attention. But given the class size of abt 15 students to 2 teachers n 3 hrs daily class, is the 1-1 attention really possible? Or does it mean on certain days my kid may not get any attention? Or is it my kid will only get few min of personal attention daily since the teacher’s time is split among the students?

Sorry I’m alittle confused over how the teacher segregate their time n how the classes r conducted.
