PCF/PAP Kindergartens

PCF is good and cheap. Have to go for other additional enrichment to prepare P1. This kind of money cannot save.

This kindergarten at Blk 508 Hougang Ave 10 #01-93 welcomes special needs children to study in the school.

This is good news for parents with special needs children who want their children to benefit interactive and social interaction with other children.

Hello~ Am going to enrol my 3yo in PCF at Yishun this May. Just curious what are the activities and programmes they will be learning there? Will parents be able to accompany them for the first few days? The time slot is 4hrs? Will there be any tea break in between?


Was a PCF student many many yrs ago but couldnt recall a single thing.. Haha!

Appreciate mummies for your kind input please~

Cheers,

For the first 2 weeks, they will be dismissed earlier by 1 or 2 hours. Can't remember the exact timing as it is 4 yrs back for my children. However, the nursery, the child exposed to singing, games, basic alphabets, numbers and Chinese stroke as well as basic writing for these learning. Not quite sure whether any changes or more.

Dear Parents


Is anybody's children w/ Senja-Cashew pcf? Reason for asking, bcos of costs issues, I am planning to change my kids frm cc to a kindy sch.

If my #1 changes, will be his final 6mths b4 he grads frm his K2. My #2 will be in her Pre-N (N1), then subsequently N2 & etc...

I went to c the ctr ytd, I pretty like the N2 environement since it's quite new + bright & clean. Bt this is at Blk 607. When it comes to K1 onwards it's back to Blk 544 that stretch.

Gd thing is tat they hv 4hrs class incl of 1hr phonics lesson. The in-charge emphasizes that the kids who join towards las stage hv to be pretty stable/ strong in basic phonics & able to blend as they are very much into phonetic awareness. They are pretty strict in it etc. She also told me if the kids hv this xtra 1hr phonics lesson, basically we parents do not nd to send them to outside enrichment lessons anymore.

I read thru some posts that pcf uses Jolly phonics. Bt Senja-Cashew branch uses Rigby Phonics. Review on Rigby's are pretty gd & interesting.

From N2 onwards, all the kids will be first introduced to phonics and go on from there. Most impt - sch fees are reasonable $110/mth w/ no xtra on the 1hr phonics class.

However, they do not introduce the kids to HYPN, cos she explained, kids may get confused w/ phonics esp on some consonants. Whats your take?

I have been bothered by this for a long time, which is why nothing has been put into action yet.

Can any parents out there pls gv some advice?

Just received a call ytd frm Sparkletots that they have a placing for my gal in Jun.


Am now pondering if I should change her to another cc, since I have the intention to put her in a 3hr kindy nx yr. The in-charge is asking me to gv her an answer today.

I went to them this morning, the in-charge is not in yet (too early). I briefly asked them on the phonics that they are using. They use Letterland.

Any comments between Letterland vs Rigby as PCF Senja-Cashew is using latter.
