congrats in getting in RVPS, which class your kid is going in?

I can PM you, my boy used to be in two preschools in this area to decide.

Congratulations jodi mum!


About the school bus - try contacting the bus company with the online enquiry if you don't receive a response here. They were prompt n courteous.

Preschool - i heard good parent feedback on kay poh baptist kindergarten but I'm not a first-hand parent there.

Fellow RV parents, I have two questions:

1. What r the school practices regarding hair accessories (colours) and ear rings?

2. Are parents allowed to eat at the canteen, say can i have lunch with my child there before school?

Thanks.

Jodi mum, I found this MOE document very useful. Go to this website, on the right hand panel, look for a document under \"For Parents\", \"Kindergarten profiles.xls\"


http://www.moe.gov.sg/education/preschool/

It contains information on school fees, enrolment etc for all preschools.

Hi jodi mum,

1) Does anyone know if the bus operator serve the north area as well?
From my understanding, the bus operator only serve central and west areas only.

2) Also P2 is it morning session?
Yes P2 to P6 is morning session. P1 is afternoon.

3) Can anyone advise me which preschool was your kid in before P1?
There are a number of pre-schools nearby, Sams Learning Centre at Mutiara, Alphabet Playhouse at Dublin.

hope this helps…
