1. Inquiry Based Learning
Inquiry-based learning allows children to be actively engaged in the learning process, promoting the development of critical thinking and problem-solving skills. With a common goal of nurturing a love of learning, this approach values children’s curiosity and their hundred languages. By adopting inquiry-based learning, we provide opportunities for children to make connections with the world around them, developing positive learning dispositions such as perseverance, reflectiveness, and questioning. As they explore, children not only face challenges but also learn to solve problems in diverse environments. This approach fosters confidence and creativity while enhancing social skills, as children learn to share ideas, listen to peers, and work together enthusiastically. Ultimately, children with positive learning qualities are willing to learn from others and are empowered to embrace exploration.
2. Global Classroom Programme
In 2024, we introduced the Global Classroom Programme through a pilot with EtonHouse Beijing Yiqiao, creating valuable cross-cultural learning experiences for our children. Building on its success, we will fully implement this programme in 2025, offering children opportunities to engage with peers worldwide. This initiative fosters global awareness, cultural appreciation, and collaboration skills, helping children gain essential communication abilities and a broader understanding of diverse perspectives. Through these interactions, children develop a sense of global citizenship, preparing them to thrive in an interconnected world.
3. Bilingual Environment – English and Mandarin/Malay/Tamil
We provide a vibrant bilingual environment to support children’s development in English alongside a second language. In addition to our established Mandarin programme, we introduced a Malay Language Programme in June 2024, followed by a Tamil Language Programme in September 2024. These additions cater to our diverse community, fostering both linguistic proficiency and cultural appreciation from an early age. By offering early exposure and practice in their mother tongue, we help children build confidence and a solid language foundation, ensuring a smoother transition to primary school and formal education.
4. Awards & Achievements
Our school is proud to hold SPARK accreditation, a distinguished recognition of our commitment to maintaining high standards in early childhood education. Additionally, we have attained the Platinum level in the Healthy Meals in Preschools Programme, affirming our dedication to promoting healthy eating habits and holistic well-being for all our children. These accolades highlight our unwavering pursuit of excellence and our focus on nurturing well-rounded development.
5. Parent Engagement and Collaboration
Parent engagement is a vital part of our school community, and we actively foster strong home-school connections. Through our Termly Mystery Readers programme, parents surprise their child’s class with engaging reading sessions, inspiring a love for stories and literacy. We also welcome parents to volunteer for events and field trips, providing invaluable opportunities for collaboration and involvement, reinforcing our shared commitment to each child’s growth and learning journey.
Learning Stories
Learning Story: Exploring Nature, Numbers, and Imagination
During a nature walk, the children noticed that leaves came in many colours and shapes. Caleb asked, “Why is this leaf brown and why is this leaf yellow?” Back in class, they used magnifying glasses to observe the leaves’ textures and patterns. Shiqi shared, “This leaf feels a bit rough,” while Claire said, “This leaf has many lines!” They then used the leaves for printing, creating butterflies, flowers, and dinosaurs—combining observation with creativity.
In another experience, the children explored numeracy by building bridges with ice-cream sticks and numbered cups. They arranged the cups in order from 1 to 10 and carefully connected them. Ethan said, “Must be careful. Later the sticks fall!”
Meanwhile, in PN’s bakery-themed dramatic play area, the children dressed up as bakers and pretended to mix, bake, and serve. This imaginative space encouraged creativity and helped the children understand how things are made in the world around them.

As parents, we look forward to seeing our child’s development when we enrolled her at the centre. Having been enrolled for the past 5 months, we are very much heartened to see our child grow leaps and bounds both in terms of cognitive as well as fine motor skills. We believe there are various factors which have contributed to our child’s development
I am grateful for E-bridge (Teachers and organisation staff) for all the hard work in putting together a high-quality curriculum and learning environment for our little ones.
The learning environment, which is constantly updated, is very welcoming to the child and it enables the child to explore his or her interest. The inviting learning environment goes hand in hand with the curriculum which promotes learning through inquiry which we believe helps greatly in cultivating our child’s interest and retaining her engagement in school. Our child is always looking forward to attending school as a result. The teachers are very patient in handling our child and they are always encouraging our child. They provide timely feedback to us as well as share with us their observations of our child. They are also very passionate in their work. This is also evident in the way the centre is being run and the Centre Leader provides us timely updates on matters pertaining to the center and readily answers our queries.
