My son is several mths old. Maybe too late to apply for Ming Tak.
What do you think about Ming Tak and Learning Habitat?
My son is 0901 baby so he hasn't started kinder/nursery yet. I plan to let him jump in N1 in 2011 Jan/Feb after he turns to 2. But that may be difficult for those good schools. If not ok, then follow normal schedule that is to get in school in 2011 Sep.
I applied Ming Tak for him when he is 4 months old. But I think chance is low as there are several hundreds babies in front of him. I applied Learning Habitat Lohas Park as well.
How old is your baby?

I live in OS too. My son joined the Metro Town Boxhill playgroup for one term then I stopped. Honestly I don't think Boxhill is good... besides, it is so small.
Apart from those you mentioned, the " ...
Thanks. Which nusery or kinder is your son studying?
Did you submit the application form once your daughter was born?
I would also like to know your opinions on the private nuseries you mentioned earlier.
Thx!
I submitted the application when my girl was 3 months old.
My opinions on private nurseries is very personal and subjective, so other bk moms please don't attack me for what i have said in here
Before my girl went to Ming Tak, she studied in
Greenfield nursery international stream once she turned 2 for about 5 months. Generally speaking, the school provided good languages environment. But the problem was because my girl was very active and boylish, she gradually became less disciplinary both in school and at home. When I expressed my concerns to the school, the school told me that the teachers in the international stream allowed kids to have more "freedom" in the classroom and my girl being the youngest in the class may follow what the other kids behaving. The school just advised me to reinforce my girl behavior at home which i strongly disagreed since i believed both school and parent should co-operate together to reach the optimal result. That was the reason why i finally tranferred my girl back to a traditional local school for a better behavial training. But I don't mean this school is not good.
Overall, the teachers and helpers in this school are very caring, the school hygiene is good and the academic achievement (personal thinking) is better than Deborath and Bilok. Need to work, will continue later.
This is only partially true only!! Of course,submitting the application earlier do give you a better chance of getting the interview, but Salvation Army Ming Tak do value the child and parent perf ...
Hi NT-1,
Did you submit the application form once your daughter was born?
I would also like to know your opinions on the private nuseries you mentioned earlier.
Thank you. Are the two suggested nuseries emphasize language training (Eng and PTH)?
For the private ones, do you have any recommendations? I know Greenville, Greenfield, Learning Habitant and Bo ...
Just keep in mind that if a kindergarten accepts a gov't pre-primary education voucher, the academic performance/requirement of that school would not be as demaning as the private one since they need to follow the Education Breau Department guideline.
In general, gov't subsidiary kinder would focus on a wholeperson development. They tends to nourish a child wholesome character rather than pre-expose the children with a multi-languages environment. I mean the child may learn very simple English or PHT but not to a extend that enable them to communicate. Again, it really depends on what you want on your child. If you prefer your child has a strong language skill, gov't subsidiary one may not be a suitable choice unless you don't speak Cantonese to your kid at home.
This is only partially true only!! Of course,submitting the application earlier do give you a better chance of getting the interview, but Salvation Army Ming Tak do value the child and parent performance altogether. I was once a volunteer parent of that school ( my daughter had spend a year of a very happy pre-nursery life in Ming Tak ), I did witnessed how the school choosed one among the other.
