Any Montessori around Setiawangsa ? by Schatty

Hi we are moving to Setiawangsa. Am looking for a Montessori play school for my 3 year old daughter. I have checked out Children's House on Ampang Hilir so far. Nice place but expensive. Wanted to check if anyone knows of any other good option.

Schatty

Thx for your response. But sadly it would not work for us....would need something with English as medium of instruction. Read More

Hi Gravitas, I just came to KL. Since my office is close to KLCC and I cant afford the likes of Mont Kiara or Garden or ISKL, guess I am left with only two options, The global Indian School and ELC Sungai Buloh. Is that right or you think I can try ... Read More

To move or not to move - very urgent by Eagles_pa

Hello all, I am currently an expat in UAE (so I pay US taxes and get a housing allowance, utilities are paid for) I currently have two offers on the table and I am weighing out which one would be the best for me since the one in KL might be local ...

Hi I think RM 3K/3.5K is a decent budget. Check out propertyguru.com. You could look at Sri Hartamas, Mt Kiara (they would be higher). Check out Bangsar. Would recommend if you want to stay close to city centre. I am doing a house hunting as well. ... Read More

Thanks a lot for the feedback Clio 1 and Gravitas. I plan to come in early with the family coming in after the session in India is over - around Apr. That will give me some change to do some on the ground research. Read More

Hi Nemodot and Manishja - completely buy your point. There's no substitute to visiting the schools personally in term time. Probably speak to principal, may be to class teacher and if lucky to some parents. Read More
