MLJ:

Yes, that is true... it is also more convenient for me, I went to recce a bit recently, it is at block 703. From AMK hub, you just need to walk about 1 minute! Its next to the Macdonalds near AMK hub. There will also be quite a lot of things for me to do in that area now while waiting for my kid.

SUPER! :celebrate:

Thanks for the detailed run!

Hi,

It is available for non-TAS members. You can email or call them to book a place. I have 2 friends who are not with TAS but they have joined their Spelling Bee.

Thank you jasmineong for the information.

TAS, do you have any slot for a high ability P4 and a P5 on Sunday mornings at your East classes? My sister and I want to send our kids to you but so far we can't make it for your existing slots.

Hi TAS,


When is registration for the next camp (community prog)? I heard quite a number of people joined so I am afraid if I wait till next year May or April to sign up, it might be too late. Could the registration start sometime in Jan? I know this is super kiasu but my kids really like your programmes and they learnt a lot so I must make sure I chop places first.

Hi TAS,


I want to sign my child up for your classes but I am not sure about

the next year’s class schedule in school. However, if I wait till

next year, would it be too late? I heard from your admin person that

some of the classes are full already. Can I pay the deposit and see if I can

fit into the classes next year when the class schedule is out? But

if the schedule clashes in the end, could I withdraw and take out

my deposit?

Hi TAS,

Hi TAS,


Thank you for Survivor 2010. My kids thoroughly enjoyed themselves even though they had to walk the whole time at Botanic Gardens, this is no small feat as they do not like to walk much especially in non-air conditioned places.

They kept talking about the venus flytrap and the Survivor challenge as well.

Just want to check something: At the end, one of your staff passed me a flyer for some science toy making programme during christmas. I want to bring my niece and nephew along as well as I feel they can learn about science in an interesting way. Is that possible? And do I call Yvonne for that?

Hi TAS,


Can I find out more about this science toy making activitiy?

Hi TAS,


I have heard about this programme - Write a book and Spelling Bee. Am I too late to join? Is it available for non-tas children?

If we have attended your holiday programme recently but not your regular programmes yet, we are still considered non-tas right?

Hi smurfette3,

Non-TAS children can join our community programmes. Our
community programmes are held at Heart of God church. We provide
the educational activities for their children's services as our founder is
also from the same church and this is one way we want to give back to
the community.

The Spelling Bee is on till this year. Write a Book will be
next year. However, only those who do well for our
assessment for Write a Book will be selected for this programme.
For others who do not make it for this programme, there is
another programme-Word Wizard- for them.

Word Wizard focus on using mnemonics to help children learn
vocabulary and there are also creative writing phrases provided
that can help them in their writing.

You can call us or email us to make a reservation. We will be closed
from 18 December 20101 to 2 January 2011. You can still contact
us through email during this period.
