Hi Sleepy,


Would you be able to email the timetable of the NAFA Junior Art? Normally the class is being held on Fri, Sat or Sun. Understand that is a class fall on Public Holiday that is strictly no make up?

Refer to this website for class timing

There's no make up on PH but guaranteed at least 18 lessons per semester

Do you have a sample of entire semester for 2010? Meaning I can see which are the weeks there are no lessons? Do they follow the MOE school calendar system? Appreciate greatly as I need it as a reference to plan enrichment forecast in 2011. Are all the lessons being conducted at Bencoolen Street? Saw that some being held at the East Coast Road.

How do you find the NAFA Arts program so far? Planning to put both my kids with NAFA next year where Kinder Art & Junior Art. Hopefully can get the timeslot for both of them at the same time.
Considering to register for next year 2011 class.

I like the exposure to a good variety of medium eg. batik, craft work
But I find Nafa lacking in terms of drawing technique so my kids attend drawing classes with another teacher during school holiday

Anyway, Nafa fees are reasonable so okay for me :lol:

That's why some parents need to queue at 6am

You mean NAFA the drawing skills is extremely lousy? Like that you have to beef up extend extra drawing lessons in the school holidays? Would it be better to put them with Kidszone or Kids Art where heard quite well recommended in this forum.

Alamak don't put words in my mouth. I never say lousy hor. Lesson once a week, must cover so much things each semester (structured syllabus), I understand cannot expect Nafa to focus too much on drawing technique. I'm just stating my observation since you ask

Not beef up. Drawing is non academic, no need to beef up. My kids love drawing anyway. They learnt from that teacher before joining Nafa. Entirely drawing, no poster colour, no oil pastel, only use pencils. Continue with that teacher as holiday programme

You can sign up for Nafa holiday programme to try out if unsure whether to enrol
