missk:

Oh, I live in punggol but send my kid to a church kindy in hougang. Quite impressed by the lessons and relatively low fees. Punggol childcares all have looong waitlists! But haiz... Might need to change school when I deliver my second child coz no school bus. Any punggol/sengkang/hougang childcare or kindergarten with smaller class size to recommend? My child is so active...



a bit off topic, but, does anyone have a tutor for preschool to recommend? Must be able to handle my cheeky boy. Pls pm me

Hi, which church kindy is yours in?
TIA.

Hi! There's a new Childcare in Punggol, Ci Ai, opened by the Buddhist temple nearby. Is anyone placing their children there? I've enrolled my son to the CC. He'll be going when he's 18 months, actually most likely 19 months as I want to wait until after his MMR vaccine to let him join the school.

Hi lyra, do you mean fo guang shan? So is the childcare located inside the temple or near the temple?

Hi Miffy Ang, very sorry for the late late reply. Yes, I mean by fo guang shan but its not located within the premise, its somewhere else under void deck. I just visited and it looks ok, new and clean, but I can see teachers letting some kids just cry it out at a corner while the other kids play. Is this normal or is this bad practise? Not very sure as its the first time I visit a CC.

. .Hello, anyonez child already in and got review on ci ai incubator? Eg. Teachers.curriculum offerrd…when i called up, their staff seems to be mostly chinese speaAking ones, even the local ones.

I have registered a place on rheir waitlist and was told we have good chance of getting a place in may based on our q number. Actually its quite a walk for us to the cc. In fact i am also in another waitlist for a pcf sparkltot cc much nearer to my pkace but was told intake will be early jun via balloting! Now, i do not know if i shls wait for the pcf one or just put my child in fgs when i get the chance in may? I dunno if the pcf one is worth fogoing a confitrmed slotat fgs cc but just worried how established is the ci ai cc curriculim…at the same time i worry that i may miss out a cc slot if i do not get ballotted! Esply so si.ce pungool cc plsces are like hot cakes!

Hi all,


Is it true that Sengkang CC has to pre-register and on waiting list for at least 1 year? Any good CC to reccomend for Sengkang area as well?

Today is 6th day of my son in Ci Ai education incubator. So far ok. The teachers are caring. He eats the food there n quite likes it. They serve vegetarian only but the variety is gd. But sigh, he’s still crying everyday although his teacher said he’s getting better n joined in the painting n music activities today. I was wishing for one day when he’ll happily tell me he wants to go to school.
