      Hi there


      I've checked with the admin with regards to payable fees during holidays. She emntioned that since the management has decided to charge on term basis, fees not payable during hoildays..

      as of the rest of material fees, some Kindergartens charges more than NAFA. For one like trinity methodist..around $80 per term, both chinese and english readers to be paid separately.

      so come to think about it, NAFA still ok. However if i want more enrichment classes for my daughter, dun think i will be able to afford.

      also, did you know that they are looking into having a new playground next year? will be good to upgrade their facilities since they are charging this rate. :lol:

        Hi Wonglady


        Fee is charged on term basis, 4 terms a year including Jun and Dec, $1950 per term. May I know what did you mean that holiday is not payable?

        Personally I like NAFA very much, if not for the revised fee, i would had let my girl stay. But the revised fee is too much for me to bear as I still want to give her enrichment classes for language and music besides going to NAFA.

        Thanks for sharing!

                      well, mine at k2 (last year we spent more with gymnast lessons and more therapies)


                      private home schooling = $600
                      DAS lessons = $250
                      swimming = $50
                      Berries = $100
                      therapies = $300

                      grand total is $1,300 😞

                      special need kids are expensive! totally ate up all our savings. comes p1 ... the huge bulk of $600 would become savings!
