Hi kk,
Thanks alot, don't think she mind and its for a boy in case I didn't state earlier.
As for Maris Stella, my girl is in the pm session and she is the last girl the bus pick up and the first one they send home. She takes the bus at 11.20am and she is usually back by 3.15pm. Where r u staying? My girl taking bus no. 3. The rate is reasonable and so far, she is settling well there. I almost send her to St James but changed my mind cos' my girl won't like the teaching method. I also like Lorna Whiston Pre-school and though she was there for only 2 over months, she still miss her friends there. Pls let me know when u hv packed the clothes.
Mummies, if u hv preloved clothes for me to pick up, pls pm your address and mobile to me. I will plan the pick up to save time. thanks again

thanks, smurf16
can you pm me the contact of the school? i can't find it from yellow pages.
what are the charges like and is it the night class that yr son is attending?
i hope to start my boy asap cos find his chinese really poor and he doesn't seem to show interest in the subject at all.
hv been checking ard for chinese lesson and when i tell him that he has to go for enrichment class to prep for P1, i am so surprised that he actually requested to go back to berries. he had attended 1 term there when he was 4+ before he came down with chickenpox and then conjunctivitis. the thing abt berries school is that they are so popular now, their classes are very full, was told by the staff that they now do not provide any makeup lesson for weekend classes.

Hi Kk,
Have you considered Berriesworld for chinese lessons? My daughter attends berriesworld on sunday.. i can see improvement in her command in mandarin
Hi Happy Melodius,
The cake shop can customise any cake you like.
I can help you check the type of courses they have at Bukit Merah CC. Joey attends ballet there.

Hi Hapi Melodius,
I registered my girl at St James when I thought I can't get her in Maris Stella. When I went to Maris Stella, I got her a place so I decided on Maris Stella. The fees much cheaper at $480 a term and no deposit. If I remembered correctly, St James is charging $680 per term plus 1 term deposit. Also the deposit is due 6 months ahead. I met a mummy at Lorna Whiston and she withdrew her son from St James cos' she said their teaching style is too rigid. eg. the kids have to stay in a circle until they have a solution for a certain problem then they can leave the circle. Also, I think they have 12 Nursery classes this year so that is alot of kids. Maris Stella only have 3 classes for both am and pm session. I like Lorna Whiston but they have only preschool childcare which means I hv to opt for half day or full day. They don't have just kindergarten classes. Also the fees are quite high, for half day I was paying around $660 with subsidy a month. Since I have a maid now, its no point for me to put her at Lorna Whiston. As for Maris Stella, my girl's current Chinese Teacher used to teach my niece and nephew and they are both graduating from NUS this year so you can imagine how long the teachers work there. Even the bus for Maris Stella is cheaper than St James so it works out ok for me.Hope this helps.

Hi Hapi Melodius,
I am paying $100 for two way to my place at Strathmore. One of the shop tenant at Dawson place sends her grandson to St James and she is paying $90 for 1 way. On top of that, St James will require you to buy uniform, PE attire, hat, bag, etc. Maris Stella only uniform. I think St James is very commercialized now. Maris Stella school fees is still very low compared to the other school. Another reason I put her there is Maris Stella is one of the school under Catholic schools of Singapore. Hopefully this would help when I enrol her in CHIJ next time. St James is not linked to any schools at all.

HI Hapi Melodius,
I am staying at Blk 59, just behind Dawson Place. My family doctor is also Dr Chan and u r right, he is very friendly and patient but I always tell him to put a timer in his office so he knows how long he spent with his patient cos' I think he has to cut the time he spent with the patient cos' of the long queue.

Wow, this thread v. active today. kekeke
Hi Preggie,
Tks a lot for the cake shop contact. Btw, my boy attends art class at BM CC on sat evenings
I think i v. kiasu hor? He got phonics, art, hanyu pin yin and swimming. Think i better drop phonics next term as he's been attending for 1.5 yr and now quite ok with reading.
Hi HM,
I'll be checking with e-creative on BEN10. Keep you posted.
Abt St James, when i sent my boy there in 2006, they were alrdy a 600 pupil school. Now it's grown to 800! Ya, mummy1030 is right. This sch is now v. commercialized. i'm paying $130 for 2 way bus trip and additional $4/trip for bus to fetch him bk after attending enrichment class. On top of this, sch fees was revised this yr and its abt $674/term. Then hor, they also made it compulsory for each child to buy school jacket + hat and do not allow the children to wear their own jacket / hat lor. I actually din want to buy cos it's his last yr in kindergarten but where got choice? If everyone wear sch jacket on rainy day then he dun have v. stigma
. We always joke amongst the few moms who send our kids there that we get letter to pay this pay that so often until numb alrdy. Haiz.
Hi KK
The tel no. for Alpha genius is 9183-7858. They only start classes in the aftnoons / evenings so don't call in the morning. Sure cant get them
Boy is attending the Wed 6.30pm class - chinese foundation + hanyu pin yin. Cost is $150/term and lessons are 1.5hr each time. If you reg your son there then we can meet there! Seems like berries world is quite popular. Are they good? Expensive?

Good morning mommies,
Hope you gals dun mind me joining this thread although i'm not staying at commonwealth, but my estate also start with C - Cantonment
BTW, my office is quite near to Dawson Place and we go there for lunch sometimes. Any recommendation for good food ard this area?
Hi Smurf,
My gal still can't read yet. sigh.... Which school did you send your son to for phonics?
Hi HM,
There are a few berries, but i think the nearest for us would be orchard / palai renaissance. I'm not sure if she's learning HYPY at berries though, they mostly learn cheng yu.
My gal is learning a HYPY in her kindergarten now.
Hi HM and Smurf,
Talking abt schools being commercialised, i'm also quite upset with the school my daughter is currently attending. Her class grew from 11 last year to 27 this year!! I feel very shortchanged by the school leh.... and because of the large number of students, i feel that my gal is not getting enough attention from the teachers.
We're disappointed with the school but my have decided not to withdraw her coz she's already very settled in and anyway, it's only another 1 more year before she moves on to a Pri sch. sigh..... for my #2, i dun think i will go back to this pre-school again.

Hi mummies,
I just signed up my son at Berries at Tanglin Community Club (near SCGS) for a trial lesson (N2 level) this Sat. The one at Pandan Valley is full. I did not consider the Orchard one 'cos with parking and ERP, it will add to the cost.
Hi Preggie,
I thought MOE requirements states that K1/K2 class size is max. 25 students?

Hi Hapi Melodius,
Now they are having offer for the trial at $15 (usual is $28-36). I did not ask for the charges as I will speak to them on Sat. And also, die die, I will register him there lah - whatever the cost (I think it's $300+ looking at the normal trial lesson price). He now speaks like an ang moh, plus, seems not many slots left. Friends and colleagues who had kids at Berries World all have only good comments for the school - from Tampines to other branches. The website is at http://www.berriesworld.com/.

Hi Preggie,
I am surprise that Etonhouse is squeezing so many in 1 class. How much are u paying a term? Is your girl attending the one at Orchard Boulevard? BTW, there is nothing great about having lunch at Dawson. Maybe because I live here and I am sick of the food here. I am workin near AH but I eat in most of the time. My colleague buy back for me and I am not too particular about food.
Mummies who have preloved clothes for me to collect, pls let me know when you have sorted out the clothes. I hv to send the clothes over and she lives in the East. Thanks again for your help.

Hapi Melodius,
I was too busy with my career,etc... so married pretty late and actually not planning to hv a kid so its a miracle that I hv a girl now who is 3+. She is a miracle considering my age, health, etc. When I read the news on Lydia Sum, I started worrying about my girl
Hi Catherine, thanks for recommending Antimos the last time, I am using that in my room now. I don't have anyone travelling to Malaysia often so I can only try to get them at a cheaper price in Singapore
