Hi lakesidemum,

I think JCK have classes for pre-nursery as there's panel outside the bus stop stating from 2 1/2-6 yr old registration.Im considering to enroll my second son to the kindy. :romance:

Hi, I am not too sure about this, as currently, they don't have classes for pre-nursery. Maybe they are looking into introducing PN classes. I suggest you call them up to enquire.

However, I do know that Jurong Christian Church Kindy does conduct classes for PN.

Hello, mummies

I am new here. I am planning to put my gal to the JCK. But some mummies said the church class is not enought for kids to go P1. Is it correct?

[lakesidemum]

hi, what do you mean by church class not enough for pri. 1? You mean their curiumlum? Actually, i feel that they prepare very well for the kids for P1.


My boy will be going on to K1 next year, and I am so far very happy with his learning progress there.

Lakesidemum,

Thanks for ur reply. I am not Singaporean, so don’t know which kindergarten is good in my area (Jurong West) . I just search the information from websites. Happy to see ur good suggestion, we will visit the JCK next month.

[lakesidemum]

hi, how old is your child? Not sure if they do have vacancy at this point? Cos the classes are mostly full throughout the year.

My gal just 21months old la, I am kiasu mummy. Hahaha.... I heard the JCK has a long long ....waiting list, so have to register as soon as possible. My husband and my sis-in-law were graduated from the JCK. But it is long long time ago lor.

[lakesidemum]

Oh, I see, then perhaps you can enrol your child under old boys scheme, hee hee they do have. :lol:


So you mean JCK has been around for so many years?? No wonder they are quite a \"hot\" kindergarten. Heard that some kids stay pretty far away and their parents enrol them there.

Anyway, it's good to register early. My gal will be registering next year for 2011 intake.

All the best to you!

Lakesidemum,

We visited the JCK this morning. They don’t have pre-nursery class now. sad.....The principal said my gal have to register for nursery in 2012. JCK got long waiting list, isn’t it? Cannot put name on the waiting list now?
:?

[lakesidemum]

Hi, looks like you will need to only register her in 2012 then. Oh yes, they don’t have N1, only N2, K1 and K2.


Understand that some parents register their kids in Jurong Christian Kindy for N1 and put their kids in waiting list in JCK and trf them when they reach N2, K1 or K2 (provided there is vacancy).

My girl will be registering next March for 2012 intake, she is 2 this year. Maybe you can check with them whether you can place your gal in waitlist now.

My boy is promoting to K1 next year, and he is all excited cos he will be moving up to level 2 of the building and he is so proud over this. He is progressing well there and there are quite a number of "courses" he can take from K1. Eg, art, music and computer.

Hello...it's been a long...long...time since I last signed in and am glad to see that you have registered your son at Galilee Kindergarten. My gal graduated from GK in year 2008 and I must say she has her most enjoyable Pre-Nursery to K2 years there.


Yup, the Principal - Mrs. Maureen Teo is a very gracious and approachable lady. In fact she was my gal's PN & Nursery class teacher and I must said she is GOOD.

See from the previous thread that you are staying JW St. 61 so are you planning to let your son take the school bus? If so maybe your son will be taking the same school bus as my gal did last time. The School Bus Uncle is a very nice & attentive person so you can reassured that your son will be in safe hand :lol: Btw, his bus no. is 1884...
