We and our daughter love the primary school (pre k). We know two of the teachers in toddler and primary from our old school that closed, and they are excellent guides.

Our daughter learns something new everyday, is becoming more independent each day, and she's extremely happy. Wish we had enrolled sooner

On the other hand, the families here who have a higher standard are not as impressed. It's acceptable. Despite professional...
