If I have only one kid in K1 now, I would join LV@SP2 as well. Avoid hessle.

Sounds like you have more or less decided to go with LSH?

In their website they mention that in June they’ll be having another renovation so does that mean they wont conduct any classes?


Their enrichement courses are not cheap average about $250 - $300. If given $100 % voucher also not enough. hehe

Hi Fion!

The centre will undergo major renovation from June 2010 onwards. LSH will arrange another venue to accommodate all these children. They will provide bus transport from Kent Vale to the new place. Not sure how long the renovation works will take, though. Also, don't know where the new place will be.

They can't possibility not conduct classes. What will happen to the children? Defeats the purpose of putting them in the childcare centre if parents need to take leave to look after their children during this period. In addition, existing parents of LV@NUS will definitely not opt for LSH if they are closed during the renovation period.

Well, it's better than nothing. They still charge you $250-$300 even if they don't give you any vouchers. So, they regard it as a goodwill gesture on their part.

BTW, have you listed down what you want to ask them tonight? Perhaps you would like to meet up lzxuan, too, since we have all been communicating in this forum. It's always good to put a face behind the name, right? :celebrate: (just a suggestion....)

In addition to the free set of uniform (PE), they will give existing LV@NUS parents $100 worth of enrichment program vouchers, perhaps to placate parents for their refusal to waive the registration fee.

Their enrichment program not cheap lor, range from $250-$350 for 10 sessions. Current enrichment at LV like gym, ballet, is less than $20 per session, the most expensive MIM is also $26 per session.

Yes, that's right! Another consideration. Sigh! Why so complicating!!! :stupid: Must complain to NUS. If they hadn't awarded the management of the childcare centre to LSH, nothing like this would happen. :siao:

Hi lzxuan!

Wah! Nan Hua! Heard that it's not easy to be selected as PV of NHPS. So, you must belong those elite team. :celebrate:

Have you tried calling them up for more assignments?

lzxuan:

Yes, my girl will go to the same school as her brother. She will be going to Radin Mas Pri Sch.

If you can get your girl in to NHPS, it will be easy for the other two when the time comes for their registration.
