Kindergartens in Bukit Timah

Bukit Timah is one of the few area in which you cannot find public housing. Yes, it is a place where the riches live. This is probably one of the reasons why the school fee in the kindergartens in this area is generally much higher than many other areas in Singapore.

PCF-operated kindergarten is usually located in public housing area, this is why you can only find 1 PCF kindergarten in this area.

One thing I dislike about the education (including pre-school) system in Singapore is the nepotism-like system in school admission for both pre-school institution and primary school. This system gives admission priority for those kids whose father, or mother, or brothers have studies in the school before. In some of the kindergartens in this area, this priority is extended to even more groups which has some kind of association with the kindergartens.

You can refer to Kindergartens in Bukit Timah for more information such as school fee, detailed contact of the kindergartens in this area.

There are altogether 13 kindergartens in Bukit Batok, a booming town in west part of Singapore.

8 of these kindergartens, which accounted for more half of the kindergartens in the area, are operated by PCF. One of the most important feature of the kindergartens operated by PCF is that the fee charged is usually the lowest in the town.

Although PCF kindergartens have the same name, but the fee charged vary from kindergarten to kindergartens. In the example of Bukit Batok, most of the kindergartens operated by PCF charge a fee of $118 for Kindergarten 2, but there is one or two charge a fee of $130 for the same level.

Highest fee charged is by one private kindergarten Canossian Convent Kindergarten which charge parents $730 for a term.

Kindergartens in Bedok, Singapore

Bedok is a mature housing estate in Singapore. This probably explain why it has a relatively large number of kindergartens in this area. In total, there are 32 kindergartens in this area.

Out of the 32 kindergartens in this area, 13 are operated by the PCF(PAP community foundation). 

It is a bit surprise for me to see so many kindergartens in this area as Bedok is a relatively old housing area with a large number of elderly living there. This means that the population of small kids in this area should be small. 
As expected, the school fee per term charged by the kindergartens for different levels varies from kindergarten to kindergarten. The lowest charge is by the PCF kindergartens where the fee for a term is about less than 200. The highest fee charged is by some private kindergartens in which they charge fee as high as 500 for a term. 
Please refer to Kindergartens in Bedok for more information on address, school fee for kindergartens in Bedok

Kindergartens in Ang Mo Kio

Ang Mo Kio is an relatively old town in Singapore, number of young couple in this housing estate is diminishing. However, there are altogether 16 kindergartens in this area.
More than half of the kindergartens in Ang Mo Kio are operated by PAP Community Foundation, the rest are Brainy Juniors Kindergarten, Bethesda (AMK) Kindergarten, Ang Mo Kio Methodist Kindergarten and Al - Muttaqin Mosque Kindergarten.
Because of a large number of PCF operated kindergartens in this area, the school fee in this area is relatively lower compare to some other area. Highest school fee is probably $384 charged by Brainy Juniors Kindergarten.
It is believed that with decreasing population of young couple, there will be less and less kindergartens in this area.

Kindergartens in Punggol

Punggol is a very new housing estate in Singapore. Most of the residents are young couples with small children. As more and more blocks are being built in this area, demand for a place in kindergarten has surged in the past few years.

Currently, there are 9 kindergartens in Punggol. 5 of them are operated by the PCF. 2 Newly open kindergartens are operated by the Ministry of Education Singapore, the other two are Dayspring Kindergarten @ Marina Country Club and Dayspring Kindergarten.

Many young couples in the past have complaint about lack of place of kindergarten in this housing estate, and this is the reason why MOE has chosen to operate two kindergartens in this area. 

As more and more young couples move into this area, it is expected that more kindergartens will need to be built so that there will be enough places for the children in this area for their early education.
