Hi Mrs Heng,
I had visited Bubblesland 1.5yrs ago. Not impressed. Quite chaotic even tho the kids were supposed to b in their lines singing during assembly. More importantly is that there is a student care under the same roof & it was the same mgt that had an incident in its woodlands branch where a pri sch kid injured a pre-schooler while dashing to toilet.

Hi Mrs Heng,
Not all cc combined w student care. :-)
Physically, the pre-schoolers r always at a disadvantage when sharing facilities w much older kids.

No comment abt the rest of cc.

Hi Adeline,
Ya, he caught me by surprise too. I was just testing him out by not putting on nite diaper 4 him even tho he had been purposely urinating in diaper b4 taking it off by himself at nite. W/o diaper, he just walk to toilet to pee.

Coincidentally, my friend's son who is just 1 day younger than Jb also diaper free ard 39mo. :-)
So watchout for the mile-stone!

Anyway, I've managed to sell the diapers le.

How come u 1 2 b a babysitter when both your kids r in cc? Got a maid le?

Btw, Jb's sch is closing!!
Suddenly kena chased out by landlord, Mavis Tution.
I was only given 10 days notice.
Sigh! Searching 4 a sch now... :-(

So serious? Then what you going to do? U give up e PCF at Buangkok? No maids for me. They in fullday childcare so I'm quite free in e daytime thinking of doing some homebased job. Can earn some pocket money. I like to take care of infants. Haha...so cute n adorable. When they reach 3 years old will start to get headache easily.

Amber still long way to go. Every morning diaper so heavy. That day just wet e bed when napping. Headache.

Hi Adeline,

Ya, i rem u like bb.
Go for #3 lah!
Hahaha... :b

A check w Buangkok PCF yesterday still no a.m slot, so I called up 7 more PCF & even the SK Methodist Church in 1.5hr yesterday. Managed to find 9am-12pm slot at Blk 232 PCF. Went to register this a.m. immediately. Now that class only left 2 slots.

An interesting feature is its K1-2 class has the option of a 8-hr program that includes MOE integrated curriculum + Phonics + Reading prog + Rhythm of joy
+ Computer prog + Speech & Drama + Enrichment on language
appreciation + Singing skill + Gymnastics + Cookery lesson + Chinese
painting + Junior Drumming. The sch operates from 7am-7pm for this full-day class.
Tot it might b a viable option when Jb is bigger.

Buy from bata? I bought Mickey/ Barney shoes from BHG. Better to train kids to follow sch rules in prep for pri sch. This age must start at the right note. Older difficult to correct. My girl is in Nursery next yr. Urs?

Hi Wan, my boy is going to Nursery class next yr too. Beatles class. Urs? The Mickey/ Barney shoes is totally white? Even the logo or picture (if any) is white too?

The orientation I went said must wear white shoes but it is so hard to get my boy to wear all white shoes. I don't want to force him until he dislike school. That will be kinda problematic... Thus, I wonder if the school will accept if the shoes has a little colour for the logo/cartoon portion only...

Has he attended playgroup previously? I'm keeping my fingers crossed but I guess I prepared meimei better than gorgor 2 years ago. He will be in K2. I ask him to take care of meimei

Hi Wan,
Is Meimei on nasal spray? Quite useful for sensitive nose.
She settled down ok in sch?

Jb is v settled in his new sch. The only sign of his adjustment to a new environment was him turning to the door & showed me a squeaking toy from afar on Day 2, as he usually ignored me once into sch door.
However, he told me he doesn't like the new teachers. Guess they are more business-like & not so prompt in showing their affection as his previous teachers.

Thanks Vamiga, she's adapted much better than I've imagined. The only morning she cried was that she wanted to go to another classroom instead of her own, when she saw another 8am move over. I explained to her about the concept of teacher & class, and she accepted my explanation. Phew! It was not those "I dun want to go to sch" cry, but I'm interested in what's happening in the other classroom of my sch. So I'm relieved. I think de also helped to ease her worries when a gorgor is just next door. Only part is whether I should continue to put her on pull up pants or trust that she can go to toilet herself.

Abother happy weak ahead for the kids!

Hi Wan,
No harm challenging meimei in sch if she is able to go w/o being prompted. Perhaps just pack a pair of spare panties in her bag & let teachers know?

Christine,
have u reg ur children? 06 & 07 kids should be in K1 & Nursery respectively. U might want to chk vacancy as I understand there is a waiting list.

Punggol south Pcf is premium Pcf. They cover jolly phonics & music & movement in their core curriculum. They also have optional elective classes for K1 at additional cost, thinking programme, Chinese word recognition, science & technology and gymnastics. Not sure what else u want to find out?

Hello Mummies

It has been a long while that I have posted in this forum.

I have moved from Pasir Ris to Buangkok and totally love this estate. 24-hour NTUC just around the corner, 3 minutes walk to the MRT. Just perfect
