NAFA Arts Kindergarten

Hi, Lucky


Thanks for your comments.

Just wondering what the reason that initiate your intention to withdraw your kid after just half a year ?

[Lucky]

It’s my personal observation. I felt that she flourished better in a montessori environment.


She was in a montessori enviroment previously. Because of moving of house, we put her in Nafa kindergarden for a try.

I felt that her progress is so so and the fact that she dislike music lessons made me pulled out.

Couldn't find much detailed info about NAFA Arts Kindergarten (NAK) when I was finding out about it. So, just wish to share my personal NAK experiences so that parents can make a more informed decision.

I enquired about this kindergarten last year… and was told that the waitlist is very long.

My understanding was (and is still) so too.

Just to let you have a rough idea of our process.
- 3Q07, went for \"site visit\" and was advised to be on waitlist (queue no. 70+ already, if I remember correctly).
- 4Q08, was offered afternoon session for N2 term 1 (start Jan 2009), but rejected them as morning preferred.
- 1Q09, offered morning session for N2 term 2 (start Mar 2009). Took it, since kid not attending class at any where else and the whole family had a \"love at first sight\" kindda feeling.

Can I know how early do I hv to register my boy in the school? My boy is coming to 17 month soon. Also how much do I hv to pay to be on the waiting list? Thanks!

It’s best that you call the school up to check for the latest practice.


Previously, "at my time" (sounds like a long time ago) there wasn’t a minimum age in order to be placed on wait list. And there is no charges for being placed on the wait list.

thanks for yr reply. Does this school prepare the kid well for P1? Understand from some forums that they do not need to send their kids for further enrichment courses after their kids attend this preschool. It sounds so convincing but nt sure if it is worth the wait and money…


Anymore parents having their kids in this school? Can I hv more feedbacks? Appreciate that.

Hope other parents can provide more info on that for you.


I’m not very concern about prep for P1 and not aware of what prep needed to be done… at least not for now. Only concern now is kiddo will establish right attitude towards learning and social situations.
