Thanks Buds! :celebrate:



But I saw these:

The noun, verb symbol. I heard that they are introduced to kids at elementary sch, so that explains why pre schs dun have? That's what I heard from the sch that uses it. :?

I managed to find this interesting article that tries to summarise what Montessori is all about & present it to the layman in as simple a form as possible. Might be worth a read I browsed through quickly & found it really helpful.

Jul04,

Anyone knows any other Montessori sch in serangoon?I have visited some of the good ones but yet to find one that is very good and within my budget. Good ones are out of budget and some which is not what I want is within.

Hi allcc6


I’m not sending him for the weekday drop off programme. I’m just looking for a parent-accompanied weekend class. He’s 18 mths now & I only plan to send him to pre-nursery next year.

Tomorrow’s trial is for playgroup.

I know there's a Lumiere Montessori House @ Wolskel Rd, The Montessori Playroom Kindergarten @ Hougang Central & Singapore Montessori Kindergarten @ Windsor park Rd (which I think you've visited right?).

What's the charges like for Spore Mont Kindy?

No lah, my budget is really low…less than $450.

If u can afford $500 and above, chances are your search is quite easy.

Been to lumiere, very good setting. It’s what I want, but but but, fee is $1500 per term (10 weeks). They have 8 to 1.30pm timing also, lagi best, but at $2100 per term.
And that doesn’t include sch bus fee. And the sch bus takes about 1 hr. I think there is only one or two buses.
Teachers are cheerful.


SG Montessori is $1020 per term, but they are increasing to $1260 in term 3. Within my budget, but I dun see cheerful teachers/students leh, but as I said before, their academic standard quite high.
