Hi Vanessa,
This is my comment to another in the forum about 6 months ago:
"
We did consider Avondale. As I said in the above linked post, we visited them and had a tour. It definitely has a more small community primary school feel to it. The staff are nice and were welcoming to visitors. The school is based out of a converted office building and the rooms are very strangely laid out which threw us off a bit, and after seeing the facilities at AIS which was designed as a school from the ground up it was quite striking a difference."
I've said this before, and I'll say it again. I can't recommend you visiting Singapore and spending a couple of days visiting schools enough. It is too big a decision not to do the full due diligence. What I find acceptable, and what I think makes a great school, are probably going to be different to you. Sending 3 kids to a private school is going to set you back at least 60k a year. 3k to fly up and spend a few days is a tiny fraction of that, or better yet, get your company to pay for it
Cheers
