Reviews of Rothewood Academy South Surrey (Kindergarten)

Charlie went to here for almost 2 1/2 years and it has honestly been the best experience we could ever have asked for. The best facility, teachers and curriculum that anyone could ever want. I would not hesitate to refer all our family and friends to Rothewood. Absolutely amazing! You have setup Charlie for success! Thank you so much!!

Our son has been attending Rothewood Academy for almost 3 years since Sep 2016. We chose the school because of its reputation, and we stay here for 3 years because of its greatest teachers. We love the facility, teachers, staff, curriculum and atmosphere here of the school, and it is like our extended family. The teachers are so kind, knowledgeable and experienced, and we appreciate that our son has always been looked after well and been given the best care we can never imagine. We have no hesitation in recommending Rothewood Academy to our friends who are looking for the best daycare centre.

I couldn't add to the response from the previous complaint so I had to log in different ID. To add more detail to the issue about reimbursement, last month payment which was already made at the beginning of the registration that is the reason why I was supposed to get the cheque back instead of paying tuition fee less $250. (on the last day, the principal and vice principal discussed in front of me that the reimbursement shouldn't be a problem and the owner will contact me directly which had never happened.) Also, it wasn't 6 months that I had to stay for the reimbursement (as many other parents in my daughter's class got reimbursed at the 4th month) I knew it would end up being "she said he said thing" and eventually I wouldn't get my money back because I heard what happened with the reimbursement issue from other moms who warned me before I drop my daughter out. That is the reason why I wasn't complaining about it more, however, every time when I went there I was told that the owner is going to contact me and the principal asked me to leave my contact number not the way it was explained in 3 hours ago comment here. Now, it has changed the name and it's not CEFA anymore, therefore (even though it is the same owner and same principal) the owner will say that it's not CEFA anymore excuse. However, I want to add that it is not a good way to deal with the business.

We are very happy with the experience of having our son at Rothewood Academy. He loves the daycare, the teachers and all of his friends. We love them all too. They are very passionate, friendly, and caring.

I want say 2 fact happened in this school. They raised tuition with only 2 weeks notice. And they changed everything(except staff) including name and curriculum and uniform during summer vacation with only 3day notice. Do not expect any respect for parent.

The Principal Raj Sumra and Vice Principal Tarwinder Kakkar , they both are very nice and so excellent . They both are very professional , they can settle down everything quickly , and solve the problems smoothly . They calm the first entry kids very skillful. I can see in this location that the kids love these 2 principals more although they are not the teaches who stay with kids most time. They loves the kids also they respect the parents. I will update the teaches in the class later on . I believe the excellent managers will have an excellent team. Shirley

I can't say how amazing the staff are with my little one. She is unique and they respect each child is different, they learn differently and they have specific needs. She's free to be an individual while at the same time is developing lifelong relationships and having fun being educated. We love Rothewood.

Rothewood is an amazing environment for your little ones. From the moment we had our orientation I knew it was the right place for our kids. The staff and teachers are extremely attentive and very supportive in all aspects. Can’t say enough lovely things!

My niece and I went for a tour last week and were really impressed with the learning environment at the Morgan Crossing location. I'm an elementary school teacher and was impressed with the philosophy of education being presented at this daycare/ preschool. The vice principal was very friendly and quite knowledgeable about the process needed for effective learning being offered at her school. My niece is looking forward to having her 18 month old attend this location should there be an opening.

Don’t go to this daycare!!! The manager has no credibility at all. The school was CEFA before so I registered for my two kids with the deposit 400 dollars and they put them on the wait list. I have waited for 5 months, 3 weeks ago they changed everything from CEFA to another brand Rothewood Academy without any notice until I went to school and found such changes. Since it’s not CEFA anymore,therefore I asked the principal to cancel the registration and get my refund. I was told to call the manager for the cancellation. I already sent 4 e-mails and called the manager 10 times, everytime I call the manager, he always promise to give me the answer tomorrow. It has already been 3 weeks. Now the manager doesn’t answer the phone.I feel like the manage doesn’t want to solve the problem and give any refund at all. For the principal, I went to the daycare in person and principal just told me to contact the manager and ignore us. They have no respect for the parent. So the question is that do you want to bring you kids to the such daycare with such manager and principal?

Our son has been going to this day care for over two months and I have to say this is one of the best day care in white rock/south Surrey area. The principle and teachers here are very thoughtful and care and great shout out to Ms. Chan at baby class who truly care for our son. We can rest assure our son would be happy and greatly taken care of the day he is in.

Enrolled my son in Rothewood south Surrey in February with a doubt if its going to be worth it. But all my apprehensions came to an end, all thanks to the wonderful and extremely caring staff. The facility is BEAUTIFULLY planned and very child user friendly. practical age appropriate outdoor play area. Clean and hygienic kitchen to serve the tiny tumblers with nutritious meals. Trust me. it will the best ever investment you make for your child. Every seed needs a fertile soil to sprout, and Rothewood will prove to be one.

This daycare opens at 7 am, it is really friendly for parents who need to work early in the morning.My elder son just graduated from JK3 this Auguest. He had a great year there. Now my younger son start at his 19 months. It only took a week for him to adapt there. I am so glad I choose this daycare institution.

Went for a tour last week and my wife and I were blown away by the school. It's brand new and the playground was incredible. It isn't like any other daycare playground we had ever seen. The Principal and teachers were very warm and friendly us and to our son. This school is our pick and we would highly recommend it!

Rick Mann

The teacher truly cared for our children and regularly keep tabs on how they're doing today. We've had two of our children graduate from their Pre-K program and look forward to enrolling our third in the next few years.

Must give them $200 to apply but no guarentee of space or ever getting in! Was told not to bother if i couldn't afford to part with $200 that I can't get back until shes too old for cefa (5 years old) and would only get back $150 of it. My daughter and I left in tears. Feels like a very discriminatory place. If you can't fork out money left right and center then you wont feel welcome here!
