Does anyone know of a playgroup ( that is considerably good ) on the Hk side that allows helpers into the classroom . As a working mom- I have found it very hard to find good preschool / playgroup programs that allow helpers to accompany children. The only ones that do allow helpers are the really ' local' ones , which aren't good at all . My child I attending tutor time and would like to find a 'second' school for him so that he is not just playing at home. Please help!

I have my kids at ICMS at Tin Hau and we've been quite happy there. It is gaining popularity and my daughter has classmates from as far as Mongkok and Ap Lei Chau. If you're wanting an accompanied program for a 2 year old, it would be this one: http://icms.edu.hk/programs/playgroups/pre-casa-stepping-stone-n2ss (3 mornings a week). When my daughter was in an accompanied class, it was about 60% parents and 40% helpers. It varied each lesson though. They also have an unaccompanied class for 2 year olds which is every day - 3 available times, 8:30, 10:45 and 2. They are currently opening a 2nd campus in Sai Wan Ho, but it will not offer the accompanied classes at this time, only the "precasa" (and older "casa") unaccompanied program.
 
Whereabouts do you live?
On the Hk side - Try My Little Classroom, located in CauseWay Bay. They run 2 classes in the morning . Heard eXtReMELy positive feedback from friends. My friends accompany their kids to class sometimes, and at other times, the helpers do the accompanying. To my understanding , they teach 6 'subjects' each class. From gym to arts to science to sentence building to etiquette. The teacher there used to teach at woodland at repulse Bay. It is very important that we all choose a playgroup not only with a good structured curriculum, but also a school or learning Center with qualified teachers. When my boy was younger, I have tried so many different playgroups with a good program, but lack teacher quality. Or vice versa.
There is another one in Kowloon. Let me ask and get back to you soon.
Hope it helps!
