[lhy686]

Hihi Partyof5,


I'm staying at Marine Crescent

So far we've been to view the following schools:
Chiltern House @ East Coast
Lorna Whiston @ East Coast
Cherie Hearts @ Mountbatten
My First Skool @ Mountbatten
Little Skool House @ Mountbatten
Little Skool House @ Thomson
Little Skool House @ Fidelio Street
Schoolhouse By the Bay

Sigh..Hb initially wanted Little Skool House @ mountbatten already...now gotto check with him again to confirm.

Actually Lorna Whiston is my favourite out of all...but the school fees' really ex and hb doesn't think our little toddler needs to go to such an expensive school

Hi lhy686,


My child is 2.5 yrs old now so he will be enrolled in N1 next year.

My hubby and I both lilked the place. We liked the food menu as they use natural food and not processed food. Moreover, we are quite delighted to know that they baked their own pastry as well.

I was quite skeptical about the curriculum as I am not sure how beneficial & effective a literature based curriculum is. However, I do like that there are lots of hands on activity and a lot of the times they teach through playing.

I agree it’s not cheap but I have looked at the other choices around that neighbourhood and it seems to be a better choice.

Another school is opening at mountbatten square. So I’m gonna check it out too.

Hi both


My son is 18 mths old and I live in Geylang so yeah LSH Mountbatten has the perfect location! Unfortunately we tried and it’s not suitable for our kid. The school seems chaotic during bath, meal time, i think just too many kids. Maybe my boy is the active sort so definitely cannot fit into the environment where the kids were jus made to sit still.

lhy686, may I know how much is half and full day for Lorna Winston after subsidy?

Have you guys heard of Cherie Hearts knowledge Xplorer at Katong?


Thanks.

Hi Partyof5,


My child is also very active. How do they make your child sit still? Do you think the teachers scream & shout at the children? What I was told by the principal is that they have a No Shouting & Screaming rule for the teachers.

Hi jsmom,

Heehee, so if we were to enrol our kids together, they should be in the same class! :lol:

Ya, I'm also unsure of the curriculum, but then again, i guess we'll have to try out before knowing.

I saw from outside the ChildFirst@Mountbatten Sq. Seems vibrant and interesting. But I'll need to start my boy from next week, so that option will be out for me since they're not opened yet.

Ah! I went during their bath, meal time actually. Actually the situation seems to be almost the same everywhere i went. I find it still controllable and alright to me. 2 teachers were with the kids who are having lunch, and another 2 or 3 helping out with the bath. They were friendly to us and my boy as well...that's why impression was quite good.

My boy is also the super active kind...will run around and jump here and there. I saw the teachers asking the kids to sit down, but definitely not in a harsh or fierce manner...just firm.

Nope, haven't heard of Cherie Hearts knowledge Xplorer at Katong
