hi piyo,
i just browsed through old posts and read that u're going to send megan to some playgroup rite? also saw that u listed a few centres ard this area
just to mention, i visited seedlings at dawson place last year, and after talking to the principal for an hr, she finally admitted to me that the centre doesn't hv a full-time montessori trained teacher and the part-timer only comes in twice a week. i'm not sure if the centre has a full-time montessori trained teacher now or not.
there's actually a lot of montessori centres in sg that are not 100% montessori, i.e. like the one at dawson place. those which are 100% montessori, like the one my cousin sent her daughter to (in the east side), are quite expensive, fees are abt $700plus per month for 3 hr class everyday.
so if u're looking to send megan to a montessori centre, be sure that u're getting ur money worth.
by the way, i attend st james church at holland V. the kindergarten moved to harding road coz of the construction of the circle line (church carpark is now half the original size). the harding road plot of land is much more spacious and there's also a pool.
am thinking of enrolling Louisa at SJC, but not sure if i need to put her at child care or not. my older boy is at full day child care this yr.
