[Jurong East/Jurong West] Preschools

[pinkitty]

I just heard from my mil… that fees are increasing with the shift??

If i have noticed, when i last enrolled my child, i paid $380 for 2.5hr session until she settled in and then i placed her in the 3.5hr session. So actually the more hours you take up, the cheaper on parents. So fees have not increased. Its just the hours tagged to fees. Material fee has by only $10 a month and i have seen for myself that Summer provides well for children in terms of materials.

Honestly this school is still one of very low fees for Montessori and transparent too with updates on the blog. School bus service fee also kept the same even for children coming from street 65. I pay $60 one way to school.
So let’s support the school as we need something like this in Jurong! : )

Hi Kimberly


I am also not sure abt this. Just that my mil was telling me over the phone abt the grannies at summer say they are not letting their kids continue cox the fees increased. Have not seen the actual notification myself. Got to wait till after I get home but just super concern coz I got another gal joining. If its too costly, we do have to think twice thou I really like the sch

Yes dear, if you are unsure then you should look through the notice as i am clear about what i am posting on a public forum.


For me at campus 2, fees are the same as hours are the same at 3.5hrs.

Its the same if you refer back to your enrollment forms for 2.5hr and 3.5hr programme. At the RC, sunflowertot did a max of only 2hr per session but i guess with the distance, they have decided that more time will serve the children better and make the distance or travel down more worth it, and give more contact time with option of 3 day, 5 day.

Setting up and resettling is not easy on a school. They were comfortably operating from where they are now and there is no reason to move unless they wanted the school to be better than where it comfortably is as of now.

They have tried their best from appealing to the RC for space and getting petitions for bigger space, all the trouble and effort for our children. I remembered getting my whole family to sign on the petitions.

If you really like it and believe in it, you should continue…

For such low fees, for such good teachers, for posting what my child’s class is doing…i appreciate. You know what its like in the primary schools and only we can analyze better.

…i don’t see any good and reliable option anywhere near street 65 of all my years here…and the school has a greater potential to be better if not for the small spaces now.

Every school increases fees every now and then, by 50 to 100, and the school is only increasing material fees. The fees look higher because maybe the grannies have not looked into the enrollment forms and the hours tagged to it. : (
