how is the kindergarten atmosphere like? how many students to one teacher? anyone knows? thinking of changing school for my boy, he likely to move to nan hua primary so also need a place that is quite strong academically. appreciate all comments!

I loved Arise for my ds2, and I feel it has a good balance between early academics and age appropriate activities. My ds2 was very shy and hesitant as a preschooler, and it was a very nurturing place for him.

But if you want a strong academic focus, you should check out Glory kindergarten as well. I find it too academic, but if you are aiming for higher Chinese in primary school, it is worth checking out.

I don’t know if she is back…but she definitely is a friendly and firm principal.


the teachers do toilet train the kids…like having toilet breaks for those who are still wearing pull-ups. most importantly, the kids themselves must like the school.

my son has a place at another kindy already…but Arise just called me to offer us 2nd session, but I prefer morning session due to my work arrangement.

but I prefer Arise curriculum, coz the impression I have is that it has learn through play concepts, but at same time also do ‘train’ kids appropriately & sufficiently, at K2, & kids are quite well-prepared for P1?
Am I right?

hope to hear valuable feedback from parents, so that I can make a better decision on whether I should switch!! thanks in advance!!

I still think it's better for child to attend a class just for hanyu pinyin. Having a strong foundation is crucial for first 2 terms.

I guess some schools dun start with that cuz they are afraid that the kids may get too reliant on hanyu pinyin and not too interested in learning the strokes later on.

wow
good to know that. Thanks Janet!

Most of the kids attending Arise usually go to pei Hwa, nan hua, MGS, nanyang...and as such principal raised standard to make sure kids can fit into the schools. CL spelling scared me last year.[/quote]I think it's good to have CL foundation. Cuz CL is more difficult than Eng. If the CL foundation is built too late, the kid may find it difficult (chinese characters having more strokes whatsover) and they may just hate the subject totally. This is happening to many kids of Eng speaking families.

Hi,

Both my kids graduated from Arise Kindergarten...younger one just finished K2 last year.

Arise uses a learn-thru-play approach. Enrolment has definitely increased over the past 4 years and kids are on wait list for morning session. Guess the reason is bcos there are more residential estates around here over the years.

There is EL spelling for K2 from Term 2 onwards. 听写 in the form of character and hanyu pinyin is rather challenging too, to prepare the K2s for P1. There is much emphasis on reading too.
Hi Janet
Thank you for sharing. What about the character development? Are the teachers good at teaching moral/values to the kids?

There is no spelling at K1 so far.
