We have 2 children, three and a half, and 18months. Our eldest would need to be in kindergarden of some sort. Just wonder if someone can give us a rough idea of 1/2 day, full day costs. Thanks! (And many apologies for jumping on the bandwagon of this thread!)

My 3 /12 year old goes to White Lodge in Katong for 4 half days a week and it costs 1800 a term, plus bus of around 600 I think. Other schools vary and the bus depends on where you live, of course.
I have friends paying much much more and others paying less - kind of depends if you have a package and what your budget is. Places can be hard to get , so I'd start contacting schools now to get on the waiting list. Your relocation agent should be able to help - but the MOE has this as well

And, feel free to ask here of course
