To : Grace,

First and foremost, as professionals, and I am sure you will agree, that the name calling is uncalled for. I am really upset by your comments as in my 15 years as a preschool educator, I have never resorted to any name calling no matter how challenging the child is. As educated parents we should look at the problems and find out the truth instead of engaging in personal attack using awful names. It is just unprofessional and cowardly. I intend to make a police report on your defamatory allegations and will challenge you to come forward to justify your accusations. I can also arrange MCYS officers and even reporters to be present. So, please fix a time and date for a face-to-face meeting instead hiding behind a username. If there is indeed a lapse in our service we will gladly apologise but if otherwise, I will demand a public apology from you because your post has caused unnecessary harm to the school's reputation and unnecessary heartache to our Teachers. I will also not hesitate to take the necessary legal action to protect our rights.

I am appalled by your post! Any educated and well mannered person would never use such words to get back at someone. Your intention is to let the readers be aware of the school or to condemn the principal??? My two children are attending the school and I see them progressing very well and that too better than some of my friend’s kids who are attending other schools. Every time I approach the principal in regards to any concern about my children, she would address the problem in the most professional manner and I have always been satisfied with the actions the school takes to solve the problem. The school has been running successfully for the past 12 years, its obvious that they are doing a good job as educators. Finally I am glad that you have removed your child from the school, if your language is so uncultured I wonder how you have brought up your child!!!!!

when i withdrew my child from the school, fat stupid principal cecilia asked me why. I said school fees so high and never learn anything. she said my child is autistic and kept to herself. i told her that last year, the report cards said that my child is clever, adorable and helpful. fat stupid principal has no brain. money face, there are many more cheaper and better child care centres.

Aiyoyo, full day school shower 2 times a day. Nothing to teach children is it? shower 2 times a day. Or is it that your school so dirty?

I stayed with my girl on her first day in this school. During lunch, a boy dozed off and spilled all his food on the floor. The teacher smiled at me and said that he was always like that. The teacher told him to wash up and go back to class. I was shocked. Shouldn't the teacher replace his lunch? Does it mean that he did not take his lunch everyday? Poor boy, his mummy is not aware that she paid so much school fees for his boy to go hungry in school. no wonder so skinny.

Hi Avent, thanks for taking the time to reply me. I understand what u mean by value the child's and parents feedback. If my child is happy after coming back from school, I will be glad that he is doing well if otherwise I may need to look for other sch.

Is it possible to pm me directly.

Fran, Both their childcare centre n Montessori at PP shares the same management. Do your own research. It is important for u to talk to parents who have kids in the centre for feedback. Talking to the school teachers or principle is useless because they always painted a nice picture (from my own experience) Not all parents have the same expectation. You can be very happy with the centre but some might not. I happen to be the one who get " really angry" when I saw these postings recently because they confirm all my doubts n concerns. Now, I "really" take my child's "feedback" seriously rather than another" child's talk".

no point reading too much into the forums here...too much anonymity involved.
better to visit the centres or hear from real parents who have kids in your interested CC
