| Post subject: Kindergarten near Luwan Lanson Place Jinlin Tiandi Residence |
Can anyone recommend a kindergarten within the walking distance from Lanson Place Jinlin Tiandi residence (near XinTianDi)? We will be moving to Shanghai later this year and our 3 year old is attending a bilingual daycare in New York City and she is fluent in both Mandarin and English. If possible, we want to send her to bilingual school in Shanghai.
Thanks! |

For anyone interests in this. There are three local kindergartens near XinTianDi (about 0.5 km); however, one is too small and the other two are full. As a compromise, we find another local (bilingual) kindergarten 1.8 km from XinTianDi. Its name is Kid Castle-Xujiahui Road Kindergarten. It has school bus. Each class has two teachers, one Chinese and one English. They seem to emphasize on *classes* and *learning* a lot; facility looks good; the place looks organized; has multimedia music room and computer room. Was told, "our 5-year olds can type their names in Chinese!"
Monthly school fee is about RMB2200.00; semester misc fee is about RMB500.00.
Disclaimer: since we won't move to Shanghai till November, we don't yet have first hand experience to tell from our 3-year old. Hope they don't emphasize too much learning but forget to let them have fun.  |

Hi Suzy,
If I remember them correctly, these are the three close to XTD:
1. 开心果幼儿园 Kai Xing Guo Kindergarten (may be closest to XTD)
#238 Tai Cang Road(太仓路); Phone:63280742
2. 思南路幼儿园 Si Nan Road Kindergarten (may be the most well known one)
Main campus: #91, Si Nan Road (思南路); phone: 021-64731464
3. 大同幼儿园 Da Tong Kindergarten (the very small one)
#48 Nan Chang Road (南昌路); Phone: 021-63725355
If you can read Chinese, this link on Luwan Education website has all the local kindergartens in Luwan.

Please let me know if you have any other questions.  |

Suzy,
If you can read Chinese, this is a better link:
http://www.lwedu.sh.cn/website/Detail.aspx?InfoGUID=675407da-6ad4-40f2 -81ed-3cfb557ba2f3
It is application procedure for all Luwan local kindergartens. Page 4 of document has names of all kindergartens and their contact numbers. I think for XTD, you want to "Huai Hai" kindergartens
