Episode 1 begins with Finding Nurture Education of course.Hong Jing, Crystal and I battled the rain to go to Nurture Education for the site visit. Charlene planned to join us slightly later because she had important plans prior to this site visit. We had some trouble finding the place.When we finally saw the poster for Nurture Education we all heaved a sigh of relief!FINALLY!No more stair climbing =D
Presenting our impressive and entrepreneuristic partners of Nurture Education:

Whye Kiat was the President of Saint Andrew's Junior College 26th Student Council in 03/04. Joseph is a budding entrepreneur who is in the midst of setting up his childcare centre in Choa Chu Kang. Samson Leo was a (Men's Light-weight White & Yellow Belt) Bronze medallist in his days at Victoria Junior College.
Impressive track record!
There was much insight gathered during this trip to Nurture Education. They are also open to using other software, such as Microsoft Access and Quickbooks to aid them in their business operations.
During the discussion with Samson, we discovered that they had just installed Quickbooks to help them with their generation of invoices. Therefore, the initial problem of having to manually generate each invoice is solved. However, Quickbooks is unable to calculate the number of weeks in a particular month and the administrative personnel has to still manually key in the necessary fields. This still allows room for human error.
Nurture Education is in the midst of overhauling their system and thus it would not be feasible for us to keep up with the changes continuously.
Therefore, the group came to a consensus that we would 'ignore' these changes for time being and do our report based on the knowledge that we knew initially.
