Hi, looking for a private piano teacher @ marine parade for my 6 yr old daughter. She was in yamaha group lesson for 2.5 yrs, now want to terminate the group lesson and go for private.

Hopefully the teacher is female and can come to my house. If cannot, we can also go to the teacher’s house if nearby (we are near parkway parade).
pls reply my post or PM me.

anyone curious why Taonan 2c this year so good odds?

almost the least oversubscribed good school. So different from the old impression. the odds for 2c is even better than 2b!!

Heard from SHHK friends that the number of letters issued for the particular school equals to the number of vacancy of 2B (if that school has parent volunteers, then the number of letters will be the vacancy of 2B minus the number of PVs).

So the balloting will be dependent on the numbers of GRL.

[quote=\"rainbowdeng\"]can I ask the SHhK member , when did you get the confirmation from school that you are eligible/get letter to register 2B?

for kong hwa, my fren got the letter on last friday..

This sounds like the SHHK gave letter post the 2A2 result?
How many letter they gave for each school? Less than, equal to, or more than the available vacancy of 2B?

Thank you for your kind input[/quote]

taonan vacancy for 2b is 42.

after day 1,
within 1 km=30
1km-2km=1
>2km=3

Heard the SHHK members are registering by appointment only. So tomorrow should still have a lot to register (as compared to non-SHHK school which most of the applicants will choose to register on day 1).

Hi, thank you. Just hoping SHHK members targeting Tao Nan this year to share some info.

Quite impressed by the number of within 1km 2b every year for Tao Nan. so many!!
2017 45
2016 57
2015 56
2014 59 !!

Hi, Can I check if anyone knows how many SHHK letters were issued for Tao Nan school this year?
Many thanks!


the last i heard from a SHHK fren, about 26 letters were issued this yr (2018).
even for last yr under 2b, they had balloting within 1km. unless you are staying within 1km from ATS, else it would be better to consider other schools.

Hi the above 26 letters from SHHK was for aitong school. not sure about other schools. mayb you can call and ask? if you r SHHK member, you will need to collect the letter in order to reg this week. Gd Luck.[/quote]

anyone can share your comments on superland montessori?


This centre is the relatively satisfatory pre-school I reviewed.

The teachers seem caring. The place is big enough. Independent classroom with air-con, fans and window open.

got outdoor playground. and a small library. place seems clean and bright and with lots of toys.

for n1 class, 12-15 students with 2 teachers.

Anyway, so far haven’t found any disadvantage except we have to take a bus to get there.

Anyone can share your kid’s experience in Superland?

I’ve been following this thread for almost a year and based on the discussion, I think ArtsKidz is quiet good and I intended to send my girl to this centre.


However, I viewed the place in person a month ago and was a bit disappointed.

The open-concept classrooms are quite noisy and each class can hear the other classes. The teacher to student ratio sounds good, but the "classroom" is very small, over 10 kids squeezed and sit on the floor and with screaming from other "classroom". you can imagine.

The place seems old and not very bright. Students even have to sleep on a yoga mat during nap time which I cannot stand. The mat is very thin.

Despite so many ppl saying how good is their teaching concept, for the above observation, i decided to drop this option.

Those who like this pre-school, you didn’t find the above disadvantage? or you don’t care?

Just view the place and very interested in enrolling my girl into it.


Anyone can give me some feedback on this pre-school? So far didn’t find any disadvantage. Relatively the most satisfactory pre-school around my area.

Would be grateful if anyone can share your kid’s experience in this pre-school.

oh, btw, the latest school fees are:

for half day, before subsidy is S$950 (excluding gst)
full day, before subsidy is S$1300 (excluding gst)
