Triple? Cannot be la.... Last I checked by prices is like the lower middle scale... Triple means oasis pushing 100k per semester Liao that's not possible

Year One is RM38k per term/semester.
Tenby should be in the range of not more than RM15k per term. Well double maybe more precise.

40k per year is ok. Tenby shouldn't be 15k only. I doubt any international school so cheap unless maybe u take Malaysia syllabus which defeats the purpose of a private school.

I mention per term, 3 term per year. So per year is Rm38k x 3.

Yea I saw the fees and almost fell off my chair!

Unless Tenby here is cheaper than the one in Eco Park; which is more than 15k - about 24k per year.

Actually private schools are usually taught in local syllabus with better facilities and teaching faculty. International schools = international curriculum. Some have both - private an international under the same roof.

No la Oasis is 38k per year. 38k x3 per year would be madness. That's more expensive than university fees already.

But Tenby (according to Ecohill campus anyway) is a whole lot cheaper for Year 1. 3.95k x 3 for the whole year. That's less than 12k

Yes my mistake, it's per year 😝.
Trying my luck see anyone would fell off the chair only

Even at 38k per year, i fell off my chair already. LOL

Monash University fees for a business course also 35k per year only. Hahah

That's why The rise of Tenby.
Is there any price indication for Tenby at this part of the world? Since it's different from area to area.

That would make them the most expensive international school in Msia liao

Local syllabus is a waste of time unless u wanted to join some local uni or work for the govt.

Tenby offer both kind i think... local as well as international (british) curriculum...

Oh that makes more sense.

but I think Tenby's 12k per yr is understated. International schools should range around 30k to 60k annually all in. Ofcourse that doesnt account for "school trips" which instead of going to the local zoo... will go to Europe's zoos

Their current fee at Eco Park for elementary is circa 30k .. so i expect it to hover around that rate for the new campus

Ya Tenby kinda one of the more affordable.

But don't really feel like wanting to let my kid do private school for primary. Several reason... Wan her to have a Chinese education/language mastery. Also private school ppl might not be grounded (read rich snobs). At least let her have a normal friends to start off....

Srjkc is just walking distance from your house, what else more we can expect.

Chinese is an option from Year 3 onwards and frankly, mastery of the language is not necessary, IMHO. As long as they can sufficiently read, write and converse - it should be good enough. After all none of the Chinese school kids will go on to major in language. Having a more well-rounded application and approach to learning is far more important, in my view.

As for rich snobs, you'll find there are mostly middle-class and upper middle-class families (including expats) rather than the upper class with very good grounding (I include the parents). Obviously, you can see they are mostly rather privileged but it's not quite like you'd imagine.

Having said that, there's merit in sending your child to a public chinese school as they are with international school. We all want or at least try to give the best we can for our child(ren).
