Welcome welcome ..
Same as SL and cwoon, been quite satisfied with Kinderland so far. Its hard to judge whether the kids are learning anything at this moment since its only beginning of the year but we do know that Cay and JJ adore the teacher and that is a stepping stone to wanting to learn
What I do like about Kinderland is the music enrichment for the kids conducted by Yamaha teachers every Thu. For Cay, its the basic sing and dance thingy while Ash is currently on the electronic organ. Saves me the $$ of sending them to separate music class
Educational values aside, I do love the school's vibrant decor, toilets which are scaled down to kids' size and a relatively large padded playground.

Ya girl, you were literally still laughing when we spoke yesterday. The world is small, ain't it?
Paiseh, didn't get to chat much with you yesterday, was up the whole night doing my school project, thus was still in a state of daze when i sent the kids to school
Your girl wouldn't be in a primary school till 2011 and by then, some schools standards might have risen nor drop.. its hard to predict.
Heard from some mommies that a couple of the better schools around Woodlands would be Woodgrove (or was it greenwood?) or Admiralty.

Your colleague's son in the same class as Ash? What's his name? Btw, how many fishes do you have left? My count is 0

How was Vivo? Got Da4 Feng1 Shou1? Did you chance upon this book store King's Books? They sell lotsa of children's books at a steal.
I went down to Zara GWC yesterday, managed to get some clothes for the kids but not the sale items. The sale items are mainly for infants or older kids, there was nothing for Ash and Cay

Hi, Thanks a lot for your advise.
I am planning to enrol my daughter in third term as have to go aboard with her in May for one month.
How do you all send them to school? By bus or school bus?
By the way, Im so excited to have found this forum so that we can share some experience.

You still laugh
... I went to a "fish" shop yesterday and was contemplating whether to get her another fish, but decided against it. Don't wanna be a sinner and "kill" another poor fishy.
<font color="0000ff">SL</font>
Think the thread is alive with Kinderland mommies.. thanxs to cwoon, she brought us new topics to "38" about again
No lah... our fishes did survive for a few days before they all went to meet their maker. Like what cclyn said, if Cay did not feed the fishes with soil, they might be able to hang around till CNY
<font color="0000ff">Kenix</font>
You changed your nick? I believe most of us here send the kids to school by ourselves/ moms/ helpers. School transport is out of the question for me as I would need to fork out another $140 ($70 per kid) if i opt for school bus.
I have a direct bus from my place to CWP, thus it's quite convenient.
Where do you stay?

Thanks mummies for the warm welcome. Perhaps will drop by this wkend & check out Kinderland. Like Cwoon, am now looking around for good primary school for my gal though she's only two now! In facting am contemplating of doing volunteering work at RGS.
Hi, feline,
thanks for the advise. Im staying in woodlands ring road. Though there is direct bus fm my place, Im concerned with the raining day. also I have a 9 months baby, it is inconvenient to take him along.
Hi, Doremon,
Already thinking of primary school, parents are really stressful nowadays. what is 'RGS', which school?

Hi CWoon,
I don't receive your email leh...Can send one more time?? Thanks a lot..
Yaya,
Which block are u staying? I'm at 657. My son also take bus 912 to school. It will stop at bus stop in front civic centre. But come back must walk to causewaypoint bus station or can cross the bridge at library side and take bus 912. I learn from my maid
My son also enjoy the music lesson there.It's the Yamaha music enrichment that attract me to enroll him. The teachers are quite nice.The place also clean. My son attends to the school since Pre Nursery 1. For afternoon session, there is also tea break. Sometimes they give bread, biscuit or cake and drink milo, yakult.

Hello feline,
nah..it's okay..dun need to feel paiseh.
I am actually just sourcing around any better neighbourhood schools around our vincity. To get a better pic. The primary schools within my area are Si Ling Pri & Fu Chun Pri. And was told the former wasn't so good. As for SNGPS, distance is way too far, though enrolling Claire is not an issue 'cos I am an old gal. Old is an understatement!!!
Say..is Woodgrove Pri near Woodgrove estate? I am staying in Woodgrove.

Ling,
I have also just send you the daily menu. Let me know if you did not rec'd too.
Hmmmm...actually C=my name, not my gal's.hahaha.
Woon is my hubby's family name. Anyway, you are still sharp to be able to notice that.
What to do...gotta be hardworking. Since the school will not give us a copy, and I wanted one for my reference, hence I gotta stand there & copy as quickly as I can, or else, Joanna will be staring at me!!! She has been giving me her "killer look" everyday!! hahahahaa.

Hi Kenix,
I am a SAHM, so I personally send my gal to school.
Drop her off in class(abt 11am), hang outside the school, wait for her to wash her hands before lunch(which is usually at abt 12:15pm to 12:30pm),have a quick lunch myself & then I am back at the school again to pick her up(which is abt 1:30pm).
School transport is out for me too. I had observed, and still am observing..and my conclusion is...school transport conked out!!!

Doremon,
Let me share with you this incident, on volunterring work :
I happened to know this while watching a "live"
telecasted news on CNA.One mommy did volunteer work at Nanyang Pri for a couple of years,hoping to enrol her son into that reputable school. After balloting, in the end, her son was unsuccessful. She showed her displeasure(and trust me, GREAT displeasure) on national TV,when reporters interviewed her. She claimed most of her weekends were burnt doing volunteering work in the school, she stressed her time & effort were down to the drain. Can see she was so pissed off!! And I was actually laughing while watching that news on CNA.
Hence, even if you comtemplate, or decide, to do volunteer work at RGS, there is no full proof
guarantee your gal will be secured a place in the school. And on thing abt RGS, there is no affilication, even if you were from the Raffles family tree. Talk abt privilige & prestigious!!!

If you could, try visiting the school on a weekday when there are on-going classes, will be able to paint a clearer picture..
Keep us posted ..
<font color="0000ff">Yaya</font>
With a little one in toll, its really gonna be very inconvenient if the weather works up against you...
Maid:- No matter how much we trust them, there is always a guard we should put up. Its subjective and alot really depends on your luck as to whether you get a good one. You looking after the kids by yourself at home?
<font color="0000ff">cwoon</font>
Hmm.. can't comment much on Siling/ Fuchun Primary. Pardon me, SNGPS =?
Being a former student will put our kiddo in either Phase 2A1 or Phase 2A2
Where is your former school located?
I would love to put Ash in my former school as well if I can. I am pro girls school. But con of it is Cay can't be categorised under Phase 1 for the same school when its his turn to register for Primary 1.
Yap, I think Woodgrove is the one near Woodgrove estate.
<font color="0000ff">Smallbell</font>
Ash: Mom, the fishes are hungry.
Cay: Fishes are hungry? I go and feed the fish.
Mom: Sure, thats nice of you.
*pause....think.....pause again...*
Mom: Wait, we don't have fish food. I have yet to buy them.
*Confession of a fish killer
<font color="0000ff">bbnmum</font>
House visiting? Good idea..
Would any mommy mind "sacrificing" their place for our CNY visiting/ gathering?

SNGPS = St Nicholas' Girls Primary School.
I am an old St Nicks girl. And as I'd mentioned, "old" is the understatement!!(if you know what I mean!).
I was in the secondary school though. But luckily for St Nicks, unlike RGS, it is affiliated, hence enrolling my gal is not an issue. Claire will be under Phase 2A1 'cos I am still a member of the alumni. Now my main concern is the distance. Yio Chu Kang to Woodlands...quite far ley!!*sigh*
Where's your former school? Btw, do you want a copy of the daily menu? I can send to you, via email, if you want. Let me know.
Wonder any mommies here whose little girl is in SNGPS now.

<font color="0000ff">cclyn</font>
