Negative Review
One reviewer, Nurten Sonmez, had a negative experience with the centre's waiting list process. They paid the $35 waiting list fee, but later discovered that the centre only offers new spots to previously enrolled students and siblings of current enrolments. This reviewer advises others not to pay the fee, as it is a waste of money.
