Creative Space Center for Integrated Learning for Children

Parents looking for a very good progressive school in the Pasig area need look no further. In October 2008 my husband and I checked out 9 different preschools within a 5 km radius of our Ortigas home. My daughter attended free trial classes at the 3 schools that topped our list, but she liked Creative Space immediately. What I like best about the school: classes are small, with good teacher-student ratio; they have an organic feeding program that promotes healthy eating & introduces a wide variety of foods; the directress lives according to what she teaches, and the passion for learning infuses the entire school community such that it's impossible not to be inspired along with your child. It was very important to me that my daughter not feel forced to learn concepts, but she loves going to class here and is learning so much more than I expected. Also, the tuition rates are very reasonable for the high quality of education offered. Drawback: located in the small but very busy town center of Kapasigan, the traffic can be a nuisance to all but those who live nearby; also it doesn't yet have a grade school, which means I may have to go school-hunting when it's time for 1st grade.
