playgrounds are more or less the same.  I think PIPS' is ok and teachers spoken english is good but they had quite high staff turnover and administration wasnt great.  It was a couple of years ago when I joined, things might be different now.

I highly recommend PIPS playgroup.
My son attended their playgroup from 9/09 to 8/10 and now is in their PN.
The playgroup teacher for my son is still teaching the playgroup in this school calendar year, therefore, the high staff turnover rate should be an issue a few yrs ago.

I put my son in two playgroups organized by school at that time and I like PIPS better than the other one.

Hi rai_fc,
I'm going to do the same thing as you did; will let my girl attend another pg in Aug on M/W/F, but will stay in PIPS on T/T. If my girl doesn't like the new school, then shewill stay in PIPS for PN.

my son attended playgroup at PIPs two years ago and some of his friends went on to Victoria playgroup.  my girl is now attending, both had Ms. Cherie.  So speaking of high turn over, not so, and my son's friend who went to Victoria also said their turn over is high.  Curriculum similar, both very clean, PIPs has outdoor, but Victoria doesn't, but if you want to go on to Victoria KG, then you must go to their play group.

Oh congratulations!!

I have been waiting for Victoria for over 1 year too and hoping to receiving their call soon.

I have chosen Mon/Wed/Fri at Victoria and Tue/Thurs at PIPS, if Victoria takes my son as well, I will let him attend both.  No conflict and can make comparison between them.

Besides, attending playgroup is also a way to 'secure' or have a better chance to get in their PN.

What is your plan?

I've visited PIPS before & I'd love its outdoor playground and the library.
But I haven't visited Victoria (HG) campus yet...
I don't think my son will study International school at the end....
of course Victoria PN will be one of my targets...
