Dear all,


Any feedback on Carpe Diem at Russel Road? I am looking at N2, starting in 2013. My family is staying and working overseas - and we return to Singapore in 2013. Very stressful now because all preschools seem to be full and on wait list.

Thanks all.

Hi laserprinter, I can empathize with you. I was also stressed, whilst looking for a preschool for my son, no thanks to the opacity of the market. Anyway, my son attended Carpe Diem at royal road and Russels road for almost 2 years. Their environment is great, though I wouldn’t say that they are particularly academic-focused. why don’t you pm me the questions you have and I can try to answer you.

Hi curioxete,


Thanks for the reply and offer to share info. Appreciate it! I have some queries myself. I will check with my wife on the areas she wish to know, then i will PM you.

For sharing, we checked Cheries Hearts CMPB, Nuturestars SAFRA, Eager Beavers at Bukit Merah, etc… all full, and the wait list is not possible to imagine. Anyone will stand a better chance if they register when child is in 3rd trimester…

Cheers!

Hi,

I just receive note from the school at Jalan Jurong Kechil that there will be another increment of $80 ==> 9.5% increase for next year school fees!! I am at a dilemna, I like the school but i simply cannot accept that there will be yearly increment of 10% . All my 2 older kids were from there and at earlier time there was a special price guarantee programme but they have scrape it since. Any parents also subject to increase and looking for alternative ?

I have my son at Carpe Diem @ Jalan Jurong Kechil. I feel the fee increase is quite steep. Now they are at S$ 930. If there will be another price increase within the next 24 months, I will think about changing my son to another CC.


+ near by
+ the teachers: good Chinese teacher, my son likes her, professional English speaking teacher from the Phils
+ I am happy about my son’s academic progress, but I am probably not as "demanding" as some
+ nice extra activities such as field trips

- lack in terms of physical activities
- unnecessary frequent clothing and bedsheets changes
- using chemicals to kill hand bacteria instead of stronger encouraging good hand washing practice

Carpe Diem Jalan Jurong Kechil is the my sons fourth CC.
