[Zzzicadilly]

Hi all,


The age for nursery is 4 yrs old right? so I need to enrol 6 months in advance?

SOrry pls bear with me, trying to gain some knowledge about PN, N1,N2 to K1 enrolment. :oops:

N1 - 3 yrs.

N2 - 4yrs
K1 - 5yrs
K2 - 6 yrs

How early u need to register depends on the popularity of the school. Some school are full very early. So need as early as 9-12 months pre-registration.

hi,


my girl will be 3 yrs old next year and i am thinking of sending her to a preschool. she is currently attending enrichment classes once a week.

I am in dilema in sending her to 3 hrs with a pte school or childcare. My current thought is to send her for 3 hrs class with pte school & send her for enrichment classes with enrichment schools instead of choosing a childcare school to stay for full day services.

Not sure if my girl will benefit from such curriculum/arrangement. Any mummies can help to advise which is better?

hi…my ger is in n2 childcare nw…intend to switch to a church kindy near my plce. Just wana check if u mummies do research abt e preschool b4 enrolling ur child in it. i went to the school to check out the environment as well as to ask some questions regarding e curriculum.i’ve planned some questions 2 ask n wanted to ask for the works of the k1 n k2 students to see but i’ve forgotten abt them cos i felt rushed through out. the principal kinda jus walk me ard to show me e diff classrms n didnt explain much unless i posed questions. i wanted to find out more abt the curriculum n stuffs which will be taught bt she jus mentioned in a nice tone" what ever is taught in e normal schools will be taught here like maths eng etc.‘’


of cos i know the basics which will be taught. what i wanted to find out is what will be focused or what the k1 r expected to noe. Do they haf reading programmes, themed based approach,phonics or other programmes implemented into e curriculum. when i asked abt janyu pin yin, she told me moe pass dw the msg that they dun haf to teach tat in kindy bt the sch will teach basic hanyu pin yin only?is it true?
maybe i expected too much? or maybe a kindy operated diff frm a cc? bt i remember the incharge of the cc did take time to explain to me more abt the sch’s teaching methods when i 1st enquired abt the sch.during last year’s meet e parents session, the incharge already told me that my ger has to know all her alphabets this year n there will be losta writing skills n learning hw to write at least their names.

i wanted to find out mre becos i tink the nxt 2 yrs(k1-k2) r v important years as they prepare my ger for p1.

anyway does ur child’s sch give u a copy of the time table n curriculum?
