      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.

I wonder if it's even possible sometimes 😞 I must say that I don't really have a 'budget' bcoz... I am willing to splurge? But not sky high lah! Etonhouse, Pat's Schoolhse & such are out

        I think there's CS Montessori at NEX. I dunno the price though, but I gather it's not cheap too.

        Do you really need the sch bus?

          Btw have you tried looking through the MCYS & MOE websites? I did a search only on Montessoris with Chinese, then cut out those obviously far away ones like Clementi, Sembawang, CCK etc & slowly whittled down.


          I know YKidz at Toa Payoh charges $220 for a 2h playgroup but I think it’s an enrichment centre, not a kindy even

            Cheerful Students


            The children I see at Montessori For Children aren't cheerful either. They look.. well, intense. They're concentrating on their work & they're all quite well-behaved. Not running ard, no shouting/screaming, no fighting. Is this \"normal\"? :?

              If the timing is not to my advantage, I would need a sch bus.


              Lumiere, totsville, are the only Montessori sch that I have seen cheerful children with cheerful kids, especially totsville. But totsville classroom is too small. 😞

                Does Totsville have sch bus? Coz they're within budget, have cheerful kids & you've sent your No. 1 there before right?

                  Totsville doesn’t have sch bus coz it’s still a very small kindergarten.
