Hi, My girl has been w praise kids for two years, see no progress in Chinese. I hid at corner to observe, my girl just stared outside the window. The teacher dun bother to check on her, just keep shouting "when finish writing can do sth else". she sat on the floor until she was the last one. I did not see teacher approached her but she went to the teacher. Worst, saw her going thru w the class how many stars they have achieved, my girl gets zero star read out all the times. Guess my girl is not motivated to learn from her. Any good half day childcare to recommend? Can I have the contact no for kids n kids?

hi, need some advice from any parents out there. my girl (21 months) is currently at mindchamps katong, we are working parents and we have a younger one at home, so my girl is taking school bus from school to home. she just started so she cries very badly everytime on the school bus. does any one have any experience dealing with crying child on school bus?


does anyone have experience with the little big creativity? this school is near our place (walking distance) so want to find out more about this school and if it good, might consider switching so my girl won’t have to sit school bus at such a young age

thanks in advance for any help

Wow had been some time since I last check out this thread as I have found the right school for my son.


Yes he is in Kids and Kids. He is with the school since the start of the term. Already one month and I am seeing him more positive in trying new things and willing to take no for answer upon reasoning with him and no tantrums!

I think it may be due to the low teacher student ratio that quality teaching can be provided. In fact that was the main reason why I enrol my son in that small little school.

Everyday teachers and principal update me with new milestones. I can eel that they really are teaching and not just working, with comparison the previous childcare he was in.

I would advise all parents who are keen to go have a look at the school. Other than the size of class. Do notice how the all children’s behavior. Are they happy? Are they learning? Are they enjoying school?

My son is adjusting very well and very fast to this school. I think most important factor that I look out for a school is that my son must enjoy school. That affects his attitude to schools when he grow up

Feel free to pm me if u need more infor.

Cheers all.

Hi my son is not in this school but I have visited the school previously. The principal is well-spoken and the general feel of the school is good. It is a little pricey, but their school fees for full day children include enrichment for sports, kindermusik, abrakadoodle art, creative dance/ballet and chinese speech & drama so it is a good deal for those already minded to send their children for enrichment.

They take a play and project-based approach, but still have structured learning outcomes for the children. The children seem happy and outspoken. Not too sure about their chinese. Why don't you visit the school yourself and see whether you like it?

Hi mummies out there, i need help on recommending a good child care centre for my boy. He’s my number 2 and currently attending a full day child care at bedok reservoir road (void deck centre). Recently teachers in the centre had been changing : say like every 2 months teachers will resign, even the principal changed twice in 2011. My boy doesn’t talk much and will not come home and tell us anything that happens in school. For the past 3 months he had been biten 4 times in school. The teachers said :oh we know what happen" and no actions taken.

Really pissed off and want to switch him to another school. I am aware that he could be a slower learner and we are sending him for specialist review at KK hospital, and i seriously feel that he don’t learn much in school.
Any good recommendations for a good childcare? i stay at bedok reservoir road
