Only 2 instructors in the centre really care about kids. I went to pick my 3yo son and found him sitting far behind by himself when others kids n insturctors sat at the front gathering doing some activity. After asked, the instructor said he want to sit there. 1. If he really wants to sit there isolated himself, as an educator dont u try to comfort him and pull him to participate in the group? 2. I could see my son feel uncertain and unsure to even come to me until I call him to come (very unusual), like he has no confident and scare of something. However, when we got home, my boy said that teacher asked him to sit far far away by himself. He said that many times "go to sit there far far away alone" and it kinda stuck in his mind now that he doesnot belong there. Without knowing what he did wrong and why would they seperate him. (No matter what happen noone should ever seperate/isolate 3yo kid as they r just too young to understand thing) Also, everytime my son come back home saying very hungry or the teacher complain about him. Now I feel I should have trusted my other friend who used to send her kid here and move her kid out because of the lack of caring. Also manytimes I ask the instructors for the update the answer is so vague. Manymore to complain. Ps. Why do I say it now? >> Because I dont want anyone to do something wrost to my boy. Have been keeping alot of info.
