Searching For a New Preschool within BF Homes

The new school year (2012-2013) is coming and my husband & I have decided to look for a new preschool for our son because Elizalde Preschool will be moving further from our residence. As of now, we're currently looking for a school inside BF Homes that is near Tahanan Village.
