          hi.


          Where is ur gal attending classes nw?

          I am letting my bb attending Shichida and GUG as well. I am thinking of letting her attend some music lesson too if i have the time.

          Need to let her attend pre-school that early is becos my mum cant cope to take care of so many kids, plus i think its good to let her have the exposure. But i also aware that it will also mean "illness-prone" too **haiz

            What's GUG?

            My gal is at Faith montessori now and that is $575 a month for half a day. She also attends Phonics at CS Montessori which costs me another $140 a month.

            Yesterday, found this place called Edufarm which is super cheap for phonics. It's $145 a term??? You may want to check this place out for their playgroup.

            Gosh. You sure are spending on your child when she is still so young. When my gal was in nursery, sent her only to church kindergarten la. No Schishida and all..........

              Its growing up gifted, learning phonics. Sometimes i wonder if its a waste of money. .Cos she doesnt seem to understand… Well, wat happen is i am teaching her ABCs… and GUG is teaching phonics… so that might be clash.

              She knws hw to say ABC but nt phonics.

              Where is faith montessori?

                They are located in Hillview, Dunearn Rd and Holland Rd. Curriculum quite good. Blend the Montessori and MOE curriculum together. But I heard it is better for Kindergarten than nursery.

                My colleague who sends the son to GUG said it is good.

                      I intend to let her attend afternoon session instead of AM. Then i intend to let her take sch bus by herself. Hence i need her to feel comfortable cos she will be taking sch bus at the age of 18mths.

                        Afternoon session is from 1pm to 4pm. I think its cheaper too but I was told that they don't learn as much as the am session.

                        Give them a call at 64649165 and check.
