It is good if you don't mind the small campus.

Would you mindto elaborate? It is good in what sense? How about when compared with the esf kindies? I am still undecided about whether to apply to this school or not, because like you said the school itself is very small.....

After I hv visited this sch, I decided not to apply though it has good reputation. We use different rulers to measure, and hv different expectation on our kid's education, so I suggest u to visit it once first and decide :)

I can't compare Esf kindergarten with starters as I don't know about Esf.
The school is a real international kindergarten and students come ftom different countries.
There is no homework and they learn through playing. They encourage reading.
My kid is really happy there.
If you aim for Esf school, you should think about Esf kinder for higher priority interview chance.
You can call the school for a school visit to have more information.

Yes i've visited the school already hence the comment on the campus. But I want to know if the other aspects of the school are good that I can overlook the limitations on the campus

no interview chance in ESF kindergarden

Not too sure if my reply comes too late.
My kid spent 1.5 years in Starters and 1.5 years in ESF kindy (let alone another 0.5 year in Woodlands long before). Both schools were good in my eyes. Starters was a small school with experienced, caring teachers. There weren't much parent-teacher activities, except for the christmas carol. It was understandable given the size of the campus. Personally i felt so good about this school as i could feel the warmth the teachers and EA gave out every day. The reasonsI pulled my kid out from starters to ESF kindy were, mostly on the interview priority, and a bigger campus in ESF. The teachers in ESF kindy were a lot younger, this could be a + or -. A variety of facitities were available for the kids to enjoy every day. Most importantly, my kid was happy in both schools. A handful of starters school's classmates got admitted to the same ESF primary as my kid did, and so they are now back together again.
