Kinderland

hi ChiefKiasu,
anything wrong with kinderland?
btw which kinderland branch did your child attend?[/code] -
hi carolsoh, i actually made a few visits to the place cos i was also considering it
the facility looks quite complete, as well as the programmes too. i was told that they incorporated piano lessons from K1 onwards. the gals can go for ballet class too.
anyway, the problem is that u need to be on waiting list cos its another very popular choice among the parents in cck -
Hello
The programmes are good and teachers friendly. You need to pay for ballet. Music, only pay for the instruments and book. Food wise, not so good. Air quality also no good. Be prepared that your child keeps falling sick. -
Hello
The centre is fully air con. In the morning, parents of K1/K2 kids would drop them in the kitchen while younger kids in another room. Usually you would see sneezing, coughing amongst the younger children. Afternoon nap time, they also sleep side by side. So children take turns to fall sick. At first, fever medicine is not allowed to bring in (ie children having fever are not allowed to come). Subsequently, antibiotics also.
I feel that the centre should not be air con. I also feel there are irresponsible parents bringing children when they are having thick green mucus flowing from their nose and coughing with phelgm.
My son was with them for 2 yrs and after a month, kept falling sick twice a month. Practically absence for half a month. Last July withdrew and put in kindergarten.
Food is all mixed together. I don’t think is nutritious. It is not an issue of blend vs tasty.
Other than above, their programmes are very good.
If you stay within walking distance and have someone at home and still want to enrol in this centre, perhaps better to send your child to the centre at 9.30 then back home for lunch & nap. After that bring your child again to the centre at 3.45pm and pick up at 5.30pm. In this way, you can limit the infection. -
Hello
You don’t have to worry about teachers & their teachings. They are all very nice. You can see independence in your child after a month.
Though the management is the same with Kinderland Kindergarten at Sunshine Place, the one at Sunshine Place has a lot of complains about teachers. -
Hello
So far in CCK, Cambridge, Creativeland and Agape are non air con.
Before Cambridge, there has been many change of owners. Last time when I visited it, the children were put in front of TV and taken care by aunties until teachers arrive. So for 2 hours, they sit in front of TV which I don’t like.
Creativeland has a lot of children. Phone calls are unanswered. Places look cramped. Reception area small & dirty.
Can’t comment much on Agape.
Wharton Academy also air con. And expensive. -
