hi everyone, please i would like to know from personal experiences how good rising star kindergarten is. A friend told me all they do is watch TV all day. I went there during the holidays to check and I actually saw TV's in the class but I would like to know from anyone whose kids have been to RSK their personal experiences. I really do appreciate your sincere and candid opinions.

Rising star is not so great, some staff were rude especially the Filipino.

I don't really get where Kiwi is getting her info from. I think it's a 'disgrace' and 'shameful' that she is trying to incite hate when she is so clearly misinformed. I also don't know why she is commenting on a post from a year ago. I smell sour grapes.

Anyways I'm only commenting because I read her/his reply and I am appalled by why he/she is trying to slander such a lovely kindergarten. My son goes to Rising Stars and it has by far exceeded my expectations. Everyone is friendly and polite, and the manager has always been professional in my presence. The children are definitely not left in the TV room all day, I have been at different times of the morning to pick up my son (we travel a lot) and he has always been in the classroom with his teacher.

Also to my knowledge they do follow the British curriculum for a kindergarten, and my son has flourished since attending. He cries when he is sick and can't go to school. As for your comment about 'British teachers', again as far as I know, they aren't all British but they are all English native speakers (apart from the Arabic teacher and assistants).

I don't really want to sound like an ad for Rising Stars or waste my time on a post that was made a year ago, so I would urge people to see for themselves what it is like, as my husband and I are extremely pleased with it.

My kid goes to this Kindergarten and she is happy there. Sorry but it seems that your comments are too personal. You obviously had some personal bad intention by making this comments and anyone can see that.

Hello,

My daughter went to this kindergarten and it was appalling, they have one TV room. However, it seems the teachers leave the children there. I did not like this kindergarten at all, there are no British teachers. I tried to communicate with the manager who smelt like she had been smoking, her mannerism was very unprofessional. Upon communication with the teachers, it seemed none of them had any experience or a bachelors degree. This nursery is a disgrace to the British system, such a shame.

Thanks for your answer but Nancy you seem to be in every thread concerning RSK are you the owner? You make it very difficult for me to believe the school is really as good as you say. Anyway, I guess it was the TV room I saw and thought it was the class.

Really surprised to hear this comment, my Son goes to RSK and he has really excelled since we enrolled him there. They have only one TV room like any other kindergarten, So I do not understand where "TV's" come from?I think you have been misinformed!!

Hi Rising Stars Kindergarten is excellent! I think you have beeen misinformed by your friend regarding the children watching tv all day. Children who arrive early before classes commence are supervised in the tv room. At the end of the day children go to the tv room if they have not been picked up on time! Parents appreciate this service as there is no extra charge.You say you went to check in the holidays and every class has a tv in it. I don't know which kindergarten you visited but it certainly was not Rising Stars. The only tv is in the tv room. During the holidays a summer camp was in progress!  I invite you to visit Rising Stars anytime then please post a valid and truthful comment.
