mspiggy..

me found out that you need to have someone from hokkien huay kwan to "sponsor" you to join and apparently someone told me each sponsor their whole lifetime can only sponsor 1 person to go in ..as for how true is that i am not sure...

Ok..me also a kiasu mommy thinking of primary school liao...keke
 
jiao3 xing1 - the shape of the feet right.
hmm.. so chim again. :p

lyn - Shichida's books got mention anything abt left/right hand?
My fren insist that shd let our tods use their left hand to play/work now... as it helps to simulate right brain? is tat true??
 
hahaha.. talk abt hokkien huay kwan - all come out n "admit" liao. :p

I heard abt the sponsor part too... but din noe can only sponsor 1 pax. :p
 
Cutie, is Nan Hua related to Hokkien clan?

MTDT - Volunteer services, need to strategise one le... for example, form a new club for the school... so need to do some research.
 
<font face="tahoma"> cutie, not too sure abt the West side. I only know Ai Tong is one of them. Maybe you can go to the hokkien huay kwan website to find out. let me check later.

soh1dful, yeah i heard abt that too. not anyone can join so easily.

MTDT, see we already started talking abt Pri 1 entrolment! hahahahahaaa</font>
 
toto - exactly!!!!
I was stun when i heard from my colleague!!

to me, volunteer work - just be any simple job nia leh! but my colleague was like doing research, doing proposal etc!!! Faintz!!! :p
 
Wah... Waitlist 2011! My goodness! Just told my mum if I can move to Penang. wahahaha... There much cheaper, no need waitlist. Just pay and can go into good ones already.


mtdt,
Heard there's another SM similar school at Bugis. Direct competitor! Cheaper by a few hundreds. But I dunno exactly where.
I wanna join hokkien huay kuan for my gals! hahaha... Do you know any existing member?
 
toto,
chat with you here cos i know that for the hokkien clan, you need 2 existing member to nominate you to be a member at least 3yrs before enrollment.
Nan hua is not linked...my big boss is linked to nan hua and i was told that he help his staff to 'send' their kids in.
Maybe if i move near you then will consider nan hua! haha..
 
lyn - bugis?? hmm... never heard anything abt tat. find out more leh.

LYN most KS liao!!! thinking of Pri1 for her twins liao!!! hahhahaha :p
 
ivy, is that your ex boss or current boss? ke ke... maybe can help me too? nan hua in clementi... seemed like nan hua produced some good students huh?
 
Hi All

How is everyone? Me feel like havent' been online for a while. Gots lots of history to read but maybe have to pass liao. Cannot catch up. What is the buzz now? :p
 
joy - hahaha dun fall off ur chair...
Pri 1 registration!! hahhahaha :p

hey, u been to the bishan class liao? how? comments? or email me!
happy.gif
 
Joy -

CC - waitlist
Kindy - waitlist
Pri 1 - Volunteer, join alumi, shift hse - still not confirm.

hahha LOL
 
MT,
The Bishan class timing doesnt suit Gabby. She was grouchy and unwilling to cooperate...or maybe not used to the new class yet. Will email you shortly.
 
MTDT,
Really ah?? Are the other schools really not good? I live near a neighbourhood school, with so-so reputation only. So, won't do?

Heard that St Kilda seems to be "the" school around the North East area. But hard to get in.

Kinddy also need to waitlist....tsk, tsk.....

What are your criteria for choosing a Kinddy or pri school?
-academic history
-principal's reputation
-Ecc available
What else?
 
allo mummies

woh.. so many of you sending ur tods to PG already. Think i m also one of thse who hven intro Mandy to any PG at all :p

think i will start only after she turns 2 or after my #2 is here as i will hv more free time durin my maternity leave to source ard. nowadays, too heavy to go ard w her. she is so active these days.

Mspiggy
are u lookin for weekday PG? in AMK area, i hv yet to search. so far, i only checked thomson area as the distance n transport plays an impt part for me.

1) Zoophonics @ Imperial Court is one of my best option cos her nanny stay in that condo. They have both English and Mandarin classes for twice a wk, 2hrs (Wed &amp; Fri, 9-11am). The wkend one (Sun, 9.45-10.45am) is only 1hr and solely on English. But i hv yet to go n take a look on how the class is conducted.

2) This one is a kindergarden. Singapore Montessori @ Windsor Park. Only accept toddlers frm 2yrs old onwards. Daily wkday playgrp for 3 hrs. Frm word of mouths, this is quite a good kinder. This is different from the Thomson IMM
http://www.singaporemontessori.com.sg/abtus.html

3) Cherie Hearts at Thomson Branch (Jalan Gelenggang)
It's a shophouse. Quite spaceous and bright there. Rather new setup. My niece has juz joined there for full time CC but still unable to adapt. so now always come home after the 2nd half of the day.
 
piang..didnt know do volunteer work also must do research..i keep thinking its like photocopying, help organize the printouts..be a road marshall to help children cross road kind..now become so advanced liao..*faint*
 
What? volunteer work = research? Too mind-boggling for me...keke. Can't get over the fact that everything must waitlist. aiyo...cham to be parents nowadays.

MT, email you..but throw you more questions...keke. Don't kill me hor.
 
soh2dful - hahaha... same as me.

i was telling colleague - huh? not just be a road marshall, control the kids during CCA times or go excursion with them and be an extra pair of hands ard like tat huh? :p

then we went on to joke, maybe can be toilet cleaner or even the canteen hawker!! :p
 
Flatfoot
Hubby is one. He said used to be falling down at the most awkward time. He is crazy about basketball so forced himself to train. Can play but more straneous than others. So, from what I found out (since it can be hereditory so better find out for my G), their feet are properly 'stablised' at around 3 yos. At the meantime, take care of the footwear they are using. Before that, can look flat but it is normal. Need to wait for the bones to 'firm up'.
 
wah... you gals very fast today leh... I multi tasking... still gotta play with A... pant pant... Now he eating dinner...


mspiggy,
You know anyone with hokkien huay kuan? I have been looking around, but not really very hard... kekeke... Now building contact for a boys' school for A :p I got contact for SK, but so far...


mtdt,
A pool with lots of beans lor... Tactile stimulation.
Usually everyone will have "jiao3 xing1", but nowadays, becos kids did not walk or run enough during the development stage, they do not fully develop "jiao3 xing1". I dunno whether flat feet people dun have fully developed "jiao3 xing1".
I did not notice about left and right hand thingy. I read that when they pass 3 years' old, it gotta be 50% right brain and 50% left brain. Brain injured kids are more than 50% right brained. So, need balance! It's something like must train them to use their left brain to use the right brain for best results. Left brain is logic brain.


toto,
I dun really wanna do volunteer work... kekeke...
I have a friend whose dream for his son to P1 is nurture his son till very very good. Then show the abilities to the principals of the desired schools, get them to want his child in their school! So he has been working very hard in Shichida related method. He just started to send his son to May's class.
 
Lyn,
G is one righthanded girl. Difficult to get her to use her left hand.

Foot
She goes to playground twice a day, plenty of running and exercising. Hope that her jiao xin is formed properly. :p

M waiting for you to go May's class to give me personal review leh...keke.

Mich, B eyeing the shrimp!

Foot-talk,
oh no, both my kids never liked to walk much! Ahgirl carried most of the time in Taipei, and Irv carried all the time in SG!
sad.gif
 
mtdt,
hahahaha... cos it might affect A's school leh. I dun prefer to do the job twice. A few days ago, was talking about it with my hubby whether we wanna continue to target boy's school for A lor... If boy's school, then gotta find another school for my gals leh... The easiest option is the school just downstairs. Quite a good one academically, but only not the top notch. Produced last year's top PSLE scorer.

I heard it's in Bugis. Weekday class is $600+. It's opened by David, Jocelyn's brother. The senior teachers from SM are there. That's what I heard. My teacher wanna go there too! Coincidentally, I knew someone when I attended "The Millionaire Mind" that he's an investor. He was telling me about franchise biz with David. But I dunno where I put his namecard already. Maybe gotta see if my sis still kept his namecard. hahaha...
 
pawprint,
I am worried too. Cos my hubby loves to carry A! Cos carrying A is easier than chasing after him! Now it has become a habit already. When I bring A to the market, he will walk, but with my hubby or mum around, he will want to be carried.

Nag u to put ur easel up. Maybe will post a pic every time I use it :p .
1202605.jpg

So glad I dun hav to restrict paper use since I lugged back 5 rolls! But Ahgirl does not seem to produce particularly scintillating art... more like painting the wall type of uniform-one-colour-on-whole-page. Ahboy's work seems promising but more messy (deviates outside easel, onto wall).
 
hey!! we have the same supermart pp? did K nag all the way home?

Toto,
Waitlist till 2010 eh … why not all june mummies combined and set up our own childcare so that we dun have to be on waitlist! Kekeke…

Puff puff! Our preschool hunts haven’t settled and now we talking about P1 liao … Huff huff!

MTDT,
Volunteer work = free labor for the school mah. One of my colleagues’ hubby has to clean the school pond once a month lei… keke
 
<font face="tahoma"> Dor, not really looking for weekday PG yet. still can "park" at my mum's place now.
