Our Programmes
Our curriculum is thematic-based that integrates the six learning areas outlined under MOE’s Nurturing Early Learner’s Framework. In addition, the school have adopted high quality, renowned and specialised curriculums to enhance every child’s learning.

Our language programme is complemented with Story Grammar A Key to Learning which “develops children’s love for story, ownership of story language and a profound understanding of story structure by using visual modelling.”

Numeracy
Matching, sorting, comparing, ordering, patterning, number sense and spatial awareness are some of the numeracy concepts that the children are taught. Children learn these numeracy concepts from concrete to pictorial then abstract. Construction programme is incorporated to develop mathematical concepts and language.
Discovery of the World
Our progressive thematic activities invites children to be curious thinkers through exploration. Children are encouraged to inquire and discover the answers themselves with teachers facilitating their experiences. Home science focuses on teaching basic skills about hygiene, simple food preparation and kitchen safety.
Social and Emotional Development
The school environment provides a secure space for children to express their emotions, understanding themselves and people around them. Children acquire emotional skills through daily experiences, interactions and activities in school. Through planned activities, children learn the different values and dispositions.
