Pei Tong Primary

[Mama Windy]

I heard the one in Pei Tong only for Single Parent / low income family. So cant reg my daughter there. Hv 1 nxt to my block. But hope to find a better one. I will prob look for 1 slightly further away as my son is in child care. So, hope bro & sis can be in the same school / nearby - easier for me to pick them up.


Thanks for the info pertaining to the school. May I know what’s CA & SA?

Hi Amyamy,


I’ve yet to decide which child care I will reg my son into. Just came bk from a walk thru Ave 4 & 5, saw 2 banners pertaining to My First Skool with child care & BASC. Walked around blk 375 & 339 - nothing of such.

Most prob will visit Ulu Pandan CC to chk out Little Skool Hse. They hv child care + basc which is my ideal.

oh…din’t know there is BASC at Ulu Pandan CC…btw, where do u work?? I know there is BASC in MMI near the HP there…out of sudden, forget the name…if u want, maybe i can lookout for u??

Within this wk I've checked out 2 BASC... I was very impressive & clean - Little Skool Hse @ Ulu Pandan CC. Cost $350/mth. It's with a child care. Now would be the cost of the school bus to get my daughter there. They seemed to be more pro & more open to parents bringing in private tutor if we want / we could sign up our kid for courses at the CC & the BASC teacher will take them there at the specified time.


Just visited Little Professor in Clementi Central Blk 443 - not impressive as compared to what I see in the website. What put me off were: 1) the toilet cum bathroom where the kids will shower & do their biz. Kind of dirty & there's only 1 for say.. abt 30 kids. I asked if they will allow kid to nap.. they yes if they finish their work... & asked where? on the desk where they will eat & do their work. Meaning that my poor daughter will prob be sitting on the same chair & use the same table for eating, homework & sit on the chair & put her hand on the table to sleep... cost is not cheap. $300..

The environment of the BASC in Clementi Student Care seems to be better. Cost $250. Add'l $10.wk for school hols.

Thanks for the reviews, Mama Windy! I'm sure parents will find it useful. For families with full time working parents, I definitely recommend sending kids to BASC starting P1. This will get the kids used to a regiment of studying before play, allowing parents to spend more quality family time with their children when they get home all tired from work.
