Kinderland Pre-school / New Potty

Called up Kinderland serangoon this morning and they confirmed that they will not charge any fees for the school holidays period('calendar' as per MOE's guideline). Luckily, otherwise it'll be too expensive to have to pay a good S$500 for a whole month of June - we're ok if it's just for the 1 wk holidays but apparently, they said they wont. *phew* :D

Have also checked and was told that the branch at hougang is indeed a childcare centre(cc) but we could also join them for their 3 hrs sessions, together with the same group of children in the childcare facility and the fees between these 2 isn't great - plus there's subsidy for cc, so it might turn out to be alot 'cheaper'.
But we prefer to stick to our 'just school' option.

But now, the question is - what is Renee going to do during those holiday period? Especially the June and December holidays? hahaha well, maybe let her go to those fun play groups, see how things go first.

Like Kinderland's approach as they're not that pushy academically as well and that's very important as Renee's still very young. They've suggested to start her after CNY in case of separation anxiety after the few days of holiday but Renee has been asking to go to school!
I'm now considering to let her join-in next week or the next term in case we might wanna go for a short trip?(think most likely the latter as just told her that the school said to go after CNY, and she said ok).

Oh, we've changed Renee's potty! Got this in a haste during daddy's absence but find it not so useful as it can't be converted to a stool or chair. The only good thing about it is that the potty is removable.

So, got it exchanged to this(by Safety 1st) :

This is alot better as it can be converted to a chair/a step stool(different height) - which is very good as Renee can stand on it to brush her teeth at the basin or even wash her hands and on those rare occasions when we 're unable to bring her to the toilet seat on time, she could just remove the top purple seat and voila, do her toilet business there :)
The potty is also removable, so cleaning is easier too. Saw some potties that resemble a throne but other than being nice, they're quite redundant as they're pretty bulky and not as useful.
