Club Wild Wild West (From Bukit Merah to Tuas)

[ysy]

Hi all,


I am a westerner too. Have been staying in the west all my life. From Jurong to Clementi and recently in Upper Bukit Timah (still in the west).

Hi Bowie, check out Pat’s Schoolhouse Jubilee. Went to check out the place a few weeks back, quite good. Got to talk to the centre manager and their founder, Patricia Koh. Was impressed.

Hi ysy,


PAT's school fee is really on the high side.

So quite resistent to pay the premium. Iz really worth the price?? :?

That's why I thinking of checking out Kinderland but seem like no one have experience with this center.

How old is ur kid? U planning to send ur kid there?

Hi Bowie,


My boys are 4 and 5. They are currently attending a 3 hour montessori programme. Yes, am considering sending them there but agree with you that the fee is high. After all the subsidies and siblings discount I still need to pay $1000 each. That works out to $2000 for my 2 boys excluding bus fare! The fee is a concern as I am currently only paying $400 per child at the montessori school. I have sent in the registeration form but have not committed any deposit yet. Still considering. But I like their approach to teaching (using letterland) and philosophy towards education (freedom of self-expression, thus no uniform) and the teachers there are rather experience. My colleague’s son was taught by one of them in the Pat’s Arena branch before she transfer to Jubilee and she has very good review about the teacher. The centre principal has extensive experience running preschool both locally and in Shanghai.

I am not sure if there are short courses for young tots, but I may be attending another Fun With Tots session after the last session - my boy had a blast dancing to the singing (he is the only dancing one ), interacting with the kids (despite the librarian's reading, he and some other kids played at corner). However, half hour is a bit too short.

You can take this time to just go for trial classes.

Hi Bowie,


can send your kid to Juia Gabriel or ACT 3 june hols programme. One week drama programme. Julia Gabriel even give 20% discount if 4 kids sign up together. The western mummies can band together to register to take advantage of the discount.
