my ds(6) & dd(4) are in PMCK.


The trs and principal are strict on discipline and moral upbringing - which are my main concerns. They have enrichment classes for kids ( additional cost). Very happy with curriculum too, or else won’t enrol my dd there too.

Hi yeomaylin


Once I got a good feel of their program and teachers, and could also sense my son feeling very happy (first time he didn't cry but smile in an unfamiliar place), I make the decision in my heart on the spot

Cheers.

Hi agentcodybank & hippopo,

Can advise me on the enrichment classes that your ds has/have attended? Which ones do you think that really good and advisable to attend? Can share your experience. Tks in advance.

Hi,


I'm a mum of a 7 yrs old DD who had been with Elfa Child Care (simei branch) since she was 2. It was a gd experience that we had all these years..The principal and teachers are all very committed. And glad that BASC is offered this year so my DD is still there!

any one know any good K in Simei?

Hi, my son attends Starlearners @ Simei when he was 20 months old till now at 6YO at K2.

http://www.starlearners.com.sg/

We have shifted to Pasir Ris but he still continues his K2 at Starlearners @ Simei which will finish this year end.

I am very happy with the Supervisor and Teachers; they maintain good communication and feedback to parents frequently.

My son and I like the school ambience; it's a 2-storey bungalow house with an outdoor playground.
It’s very fun-loving and cozy place for kids.
It’s quite spacious and mostly importantly it’s clean and neat.

I personally like the confident, creative character building education that they provide.
They have good teachers who work with great passion with kids.
Hard working and responsible teachers who really educates and mould my child’s character.
They have Gym class and Speech & Drama class which really benefits my child.

They are the same Supervisor and Teachers there since Day 1 I sent my son to Starlearners @ Simei.

It’s a great school, if you would like to bring your child for a site visit, feel free to contact the Supervisor (Anna) 62140722.

Starlearners @ Simei is located at 9 Harvey Ave

They have school bus service too which sends and fetches my son since he’s 20 months old

any feedback on the allocation in time to teaching mandarin? is it significant and will a child with no mandarin background from home learn enough mandarin to cope in P1? thanks!

anyone has any experience with Bethesda (Pasir Ris) Kindergarten? I was thinking of registering my son for K1 in this school. Good or bad comments are welcome. Tks!

Hi, my kid is in Bethesda (Pasir Ris). He enjoyed the programme and environment and teachers a lot. Did try to shift him to anther school but however he still prefer Bethesda.

I feel that the curriculum is quite balance between play and academic.

Most of the teachers there are very good (except for 1-2) especially their chinese teacher. My son know and speak very little chinese at home but he pick up so much in school and now he said that his favourite thing is to learn chinese.

On fees side, I do feel that it's a bit costly as compare to PMCK. I guess maybe u would like to bring your kid down to the different kindy that u have intention to register and let him see which he prefer.

Both Bethesda and PMCK are not bad.
