[Jurong East/Jurong West] Preschools

[pinkitty]

Hi Everyone,


My son is now attending the 11:15am session at Tara but seems like the group is getting bigger so the teachers can’t really cope at times. I am wondering if anyone has any experience about the centres at Blk 527 Jurong West and Blk 549 Jurong West (Star Tots).

Prior to Tara, my son was attending Julia Gabriels but it was really too far for us to bring him to and fro. So thought of shifting him nearer. I am still keen on looking for a place that has a more structured curriculum so hope to hear your advices

I liked the space and facilities at Tara too but signed dd up at Blk 519 in the end. MMI. It's quite structured, parent-accompanied playgroup. But the classroom is smaller. Have you checked it out?

There is also Summer Montessori at Blk 674. I think the curriculum is very good too but will only let dd join when she is older cos that is drop-off and I think I'd prefer to attend with dd for the time being till she's older.

Hello!

I am a newbie here.

I intend to enroll my boy to a good kindergarten near Toh Guan area (Jurong East).

Can someone recommend me any?

I have heard of Pandan Calvary Kindergarten. Any ideas or feedbacks?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

I am also sailing in the same boat..looking for a good kindergarten for my son. Looks like none in Jurong east/west area. I did enquired a lot. Should send to Bukit Timah area only..:(

Hi wonders5,


I am staying at Blk 283.

I have heard of Pandan Calvary Kindergarten, which is not too far off.
But I am unsure if it’s good.

The nearest will be PCF Yuhua Kindergarten but I would prefer to send my boy to a ‘better’ school so he can learn more in a faster pace.

Which school are you referring at Bukit Timah area?

[wonders5]

Hi, I stay in blk 280. true, I am also looking for \"better\" environment and good expoture to the kidz and so PCF is out.


There are a few in Bukit Timah area. Those I know off are Early Years Montessori and CS Montessori. I prefer Early Years as it is housed in a landed property and no aircon (thot less prone to illness) I also liked their teaching method. CS doesn't hv an outside play area..

I want to try Montessori method for my son who will be in K1 next yr.
