Hi, anyone or u have friend/relative who works at AST (Academy of Singapore Teachers)? I will be there for a long term full day course soon. Hence, would like to know whether there is: @ any available fridge that I can use to chill my expressed breastmilk? @ any proper nursing room for AST participants? Thanks!

Hi mommy, sorry that I do not have answer whether there's a fridge at AST, hope there will be others who can help you. Buy I do have a suggestion, you can consider a portable fridge. It is a portable fridge which can keep contents cool for up to 12 hours. It is light weight and waterproof. Dimension:16cm (W) x 16.5cm (D) x 22.5cm (H) -it can comfortably fit 4 Medela bottles 250ml. http://www.fridge-to-go.com.sg/ If there is no proper nursing room available, hopefully there will be an available room for you to express milk and you may want to use a nursing cover.

Not too sure if they have proper nursing facilities but you can try asking the administration if there are any empty rooms that you can use. As for fridges, they have staff pantries and I reckon if you ask for assistance, they will be able to accede to your request. My friends use a fridge to go cooler bag that can keep milk chilled for 12 hours whenever they have to go on courses or are not based in the office. It's a good investment in the long run and since it's travel friendly you can use it during holidays and such. http://www.fridge-to-go.com.sg

Yes, there is. In the AST office. I was there once for a course and a staff guided me there. So you'll need to get someone there to guide you inside to the pantry area.

Hi I will be going on a course there. Will there be a place to chill it after pumping in the nursing room?

Yes there is a nursing room in the office. Pic attached. Just ask one of the staff to direct you there. Or the course facilitator shoud be able to help also
