Eshkol valley preschool

Yes. My son 22 months (Playgroup) but for only 2 days, cause there is some misleading.


The centre is quiet new, and i think they are too new. If you get what i mean. I ask about the timetable and the menu, the admin lady said she will give me, but never get back to me. Principal doesn’t properly know the childcare fee. There is a lot confusion (my case).

When we came at the open house. they turned on all the air con. So we thought this place is quite nice. But actually they are a non air con child care centre, So we withdraw him from the centre. I think with the price is quiet expensive for a non air con child care centre. (we are those parents who prefer to put our toddler in an air con condition playgroup)

We loss the registration fee though lol.

Almost the same experience … We sign up on open house day and withdraw few days later… Loss my $150 also…

Hi, any more comments about this center? I am looking for cc for my 11month boy and will enroll him in next year when he is above 18mon. i have view the place, it is very near to my house (just opposite) and facility is new and good. Teacher student ratio is ok currently. But i did not see many small children there (around 2 years).

My child is oso at this ctr.


So far my hubby & I are quite happy with this ctr, in fact one of the best in SK area. The teacher ratio is good and the envt is new and clean.

The aircon thingie also suits my gal. Too much aircon is no good, I wldnt want my gal to be in aircon all the time. But my gal cant sleep without aircon, so quite balance to me. It works for me.

I oso quite like the enrichment class. That day, my gal asked me why ice can float? I almost fell off my chair. Preschooler asked me physics!!!? I returned to my science teacher long long ago… LOL.

Aiyah… so hard to get a childcare place in SK. Cannot be too picky… as long my child is healthy and learning something daily… most impt happy. She always so happy everyday these days. What more can I ask.

I am looking at the center at Katong and quite like the place and would like to find out if there are any mommies here who sent their kids to the one at katong. Any comments/feedback greatly appreciated.


I like that enrichment such as piano and drama is incorporated into their curriculum.

My child is in the Nursery class at the SK branch. We hv been with

the school since they started. So far we are very happy with the school.

I find the teachers in the school very good. My son has improved a
lot in his languages (esp English) and his temperament in the last few
months. He comes back singing a lot of songs, and seems to be
learning well compared to when he was in his previous school. I think
the activities that they do in the school seems quite interesting too.

He has been liking school… So at least in the mornings, it’s easy to
get him to go to school! (easier life for us…)

btw, anyone happen to know where I can buy the mini-pianos like those in the school??

[weepixie]

MOKiasu, thanks for your reply! Hopefully the Katong branch will be just as good. Only setback for me at the Katong branch is that the parking is not FOC and getting there is quite a distance for me but still bearable compared to other schools around my area.


Yes, the little pianos are so cute! Why not asking the principal there? They should know.

Does your child seems to know musical terms? How do you find their piano, dance and speech and drama enrichment?
