Hi Kabalevsky and other mummies,


Finally, I got time to sit down and pen my review. Brought my son down to take a look at the school. Caught the teachers at a bad time coz I did not make any prior appt and just popped by randomly and it happened to be a day that they were not having classes. As usual, my son was throw a temper big time, crying, yelling didnt want to get off the car so we thought why not give him a break and let him try out Tykes.
Interestingly when we got there, he was so excited that despite the closed door, he wanted to get in. I guess this was a good sign. Tried calling the teachers and they were very nice to make a trip down despite there was no class for that day. Had a hard time trying to convince my son to leave the place since we needed to wait for 1 hr before the teacher reaches.
When we were back, he was very excited checking out the place and started off quickly with the montessori stuff while the teacher was explaining to me on the school. I like the concept and the layout of the place. Very spacious with loads of interesting educational stuff. Currently, it’s only 3 times a week so tat’s a downside for me since I am keen on 5x a week. Other than this, the space is good, the curriculum is gd.
Had a hard time persuading my son to leave as well.

Hi Pinkitty,

Tykes is offering 5x a wk too but only when they reach the required number Of kids for the class. Currently my boy is going 3x a wk since it’s still a small group. I’m looking at 5x a wk too so once they hv enuff kids to start the class,I’d put my boy in it. (",)
You can call the person-in-charge again to know more on it.
It’s nice to hear your son adapts well to the environment there!
Cheers!!

Thank you pinkitty for your review! Always good for me to know more!


My girl has just started with Summer and looks settled. So far so good. I think I'm happy where she is now.

:thankyou:

Hi kabalevsky!


Is your gal in the new or old campus? Is it very crowded with students? Cos I saw from the blog, it looks so.

I saw the pics on Tykes facebook…looks colourful!


Read that come May, summer montessori classes (9am & 11am) will have 18 students each.

hi charlie_brown,

old campus. the original one.

yup, every week there would be new students it seems, so yes, both classes are very crowded. they are full to the max i think.
