BASC -Student care in Punggol / Seng Kang / Hougang

latest updates on student care: For the last two school holidays on year 2011, I have been placing my little one in Little Professor opposite Hougang Mall. Overall , we are pleased with the school. The kids have the opportunity to have indoor and outdoor activities during the holiday. regardless of the journey for us to travel daily for at least half and hour... I will still consider placing my daughter there.. if there are no changes to their management , teaching style..  moving her out due to placing her in a nearer and full time student care.

Recently I have made some major changes of placing our girl on full time student care, we have place her in AROL at SK. I have to travel daily waking her up early in the morning. It's well worth the effort as I do believe that kids need to be discipline all the time and a good environment with positive influence can cultivate good kids with positive discipline.
We are monitoring on her changes.. She has been there for few months.. Need any comments at the moment do email me quek_cf@yahoo.com . 15-7-12

Now I am searching for the next suitable student care to put my little girl in.
This time, I need to source for a near by one preference in Punggol or sk..
Attached are some information

Pearl Student Care (Blk162) 63438737 ( had some comments about this place better check out first)

3) River of Life *
4) Dexus Student Care (Blk172) 63857287

(comments from a forum: Dexus in Punggol. It's located in an RC and very near to Greendale Primary School. The feeling I've about the place...it seems rather cold. In a sense, you hardly hear any kids voice..seems more like a tuition centre.
Plus, the kids don't bathe there as there are no facility.)
'Dexus'. located besides St Anne's church/ MMI

5) Bright kids - wow expensive kids'

Galistan Avenue. Opp Sheng Siong around Bukit Panjang. Can call to find out more. Galistan Family Centre.

Blk 715 jurong west st 71.. they also offer student care services.. i think little professors only charge $188 per month...and that's why tuition is xcluded... they outsource their tuition program to another tuition centre to do it... which is more specialised i think...

Check out this student care at CCK!

Good defination of BASC

BASC stands for Before After School Care.
These kinda centres provide care service
for mostly primary school students without
a reliable caregiver at home. The students
can come in before they start PM session,
when their parents drop them off at the
centres in the morning (on the way to work).
Or the children will be fetched by the BASC
teachers ( or walk to BASC if its very near
the school - for older children ) after AM
session to the centres from the primary
school upon dismissal.

BASC not only provides the care... or a place
where your child is looked after in the absence
of the parent, such centres also coach/assist
with child's schoolwork and on top of that (some
centres) may also offer tuition at reasonable rates.
A few centres offer optional enrichment pgrms as
well like IT, Creative Maths, Reading Programme,
Speech and Drama (etc) to parents as well.

Centres near our local pools and stadium facilities
sometimes offer that children pick up a sport like
badminton, swimming, (etc) which is again optional
and such extra curricular activities are allowed to be
done like once a week after completion of the tuition
hours + homework, to promote exercise other than
just school work - at a small fee with a qualified coach.

A good BASC will give parents the ease that the
child not only has lunch and tea break provided,
the school work also covered. Whatever rest provided
is really extra. Parents have other pairs of eyes helping
them watch over their kids in the absence of the care of
full-time working parent (especially when there is a neccesity
for the parents to stay employed). Parents can set their mind
at ease that they can spend better quality time with their child
at home, since the major care and school work has been
assisted by the BASC.

If parents have say 2 children, 1 in pre-school and 1 primary
school... there are also childcare centres that offer BASC as
well. They have separate classrooms for the BASC students
who will be cared for by BASC teachers ie. qualified staff to
teach/manage primary level subjects (ala tutors) and the didi
or mei-mei will be with the childcare teachers in the main class
rooms of the childcare centres.

Different centres provide different care services.
And different centres go by different rules or
protocols and fees. Good to check with each
prior to registration. What is shared here is a
general comment of the BASC service and not
representing any centre in particular, k.

Hope the info helps.
