Understand from the bookshop auntie, they do not have Math textbook. I didn't buy anything extra other than those stated in the book list.


Can't remember the exact amount I paid on the books.. you can just add up the booklist items.

Hi, anyone of you sending your kids to a BASC?

[smallfly]

do you mean Before/After School Care?


I am thinking of sending my daughter. But I am still considering which one to send her?

Do you have any idea do the BASC provides nap? Guidance on school work?

[Maozai]

Yes, I mean Before/After School Care. I have totally no idea what to expect from BASC and what they do. Sigh~ cos initially didn’t plan t send her to one.


Have you shortlisted any? Where do you stay?

Hi, just for your reference, I am sending my daughter to KinderCorner2. They are a child care and after/before school care centre. This centre is located in Science Park 2. My daughter literally ‘grew up’ there as she has been going there since she was 18 months. I think the environment is quite nice and they have responsible teachers there.

Thanks BunBun for sharing. Its nice to continue your gal in a familiar environment. Too bad my gal's childcare do not have BASC.


Hi Smallfly, you seem to be a fan of Cherie Hearts.

I'm staying near Redhill MRT.. trying to source for one near my place preferrably within walking distance. I know there's one at Leng Kee CC, Bright Kids school. They charge around $364.. Is this price reasonable? Cos I was checking out YWCA at Outram, and they charges only $290.

[Bunbun]

Oh ya. Another thing to consider when you choose the centre is, if there are any school buses willing to send your daughter from chij kellock to the after school care centre.

Hi there,

My daughter is going to Primary 1 in CHIJ Kellock. I am looking for a tutor to tutor her in Chinese. Does anyone have any recommendations for good chinese tutors?

Dear parents,


What makes you select this school? Based on the PSLE results or the environment or the teachers? I am just curious how parents decide on the school.
