hi

I went to visit the school last week and register my gal for nursery morning session, paid $50 buck

The school is really big and spacious, classroom is non-aircon. Only the computer room is air-con, I was told.

It used to be famous in the old days but because of competition from other kinder, childcare center........it's less popular now.

The only comments I have is - the facilities seems abit old.....

Hi Angeline,

My kid is now in K1 at Maris Stella. Started when he was in nursery last year. I'm paying $100 for school bus thou for 1-way cos quite a distance (telok blangah). labourday, r u staying nearby?

Like what my colleagues told me before I signed my kid up, it's a nice place with lovely environment. A place where our children will have happy memories.

I suppose the con is they're probably not as academic focused as prob St James. And yes, the facilities are a bit worn out with no air-con, which works fine for me, cos I don't like air-con rooms. But no worries as the rooms are well ventilated and not stuffy.

Maris Stella Kindergarten has re-invented itself very successfully, Its curriculumn has been updated and they offer computer classes and other enrichment programs as well.

Comparing to many others over-commercialized child care centres, it is very refreshing. The Principal, Sister Agnes, is very down to earth and hands-on.

We attended the Sport Days for nursery classes, it is well run and the kids were having great fun.

It is a loving environment with dedicated teachers. And, the principal is very attentive and warm.

I would recemmned Maris Stella to parents who care about character building, wholesome development and not just academic results.
