Juz saw the posts :oops:


Wish to add that the morning session is full but they still have vacancies in the afternoon session at the moment. Do give them a call. You can also consider taking over my dd's vacancy (morning class) next term as we are leaving the school because of my work.

From what I know, they are actively looking for a bigger place for the children. Ideally a small bunglow. If anyone is kind enough to give them some leads on this, please give them a call.

The school in Bukit Timah is new but the teachers are not: The other parents told me that the owner of the original school in Mt Sinai had to close down the kindy when the rental market shot too highly. Their fees are one of the lowest for Montessori ( I mean the purer ones) considering the cost to maintain that kind of quality in teaching. But the teachers wanted very much to stay to continue with their passion in teaching so they opened this school. I met the ex-owner once when she visited the teachers in Spring Montessori and she confirmed what the other parents said.

Btw, I am looking at this childcare centre: Learning Ladders. Appreciate if anyone can share your experience with this school.

I am also considering Learning Ladder, but undecided between the one in Highgate and Woodlands Rd (Bt Panjang).


Will really appreciate any feedback etc on Learning Ladder.

Thanks!

I need feedback on the following cc. Would greatly appreciate your contribution. Thks.


1) Seedlings Patch
2) Amazing Star Montessori
3) Adelfibel --> currently full, but they took in my boy's name for 2010 (so far...)

I m also in the midst of deciding if I shld put my child at a PG then engage a helper. Bt of cos in terms of costs, def putting in a CC is cheaper.

Haiz.... *headache*

Thank you for all the comments. Anyone with kids in Innate Montessori/ Learning Ladder? Probably sending my gal to one of them, but stil undecided.


Snowyqueen - Read that your gal learns ballet at Methodist School of Music. Do they have class for 3-4 yr old n is the class good? Hope to start my gal on ballet next year..

Thank you in advance!

Hi, my friend sent her kid to innate montessori early this year in Jan. She pulled out in a month time as she felt that there was lack of interaction between the school and parents. The parents do not have any idea what they are teaching and the principal was not friendly. Heard from her than the chinese teacher is good but she is only doing morning session. Not sure what has progressed then from there and any changes since then.

My friend then transferred her kid to Early years Montessori in Clementi and she has noticed a lot of positive change in her kid. She loves the school and highly recommend the school. Hence you may wish to take a look and do your own comparison before you decide.

As for me, my child is now in Early years Montessori and i am a satisfy parent.
