About this school
EtonHouse Newton Pre-School is a city-centre pre-school on Newton Road for children aged 18 months to 6 years. It has been an International Baccalaureate World School since May 2010 and was Singapore's first stand-alone pre-school to be authorised for the IB Primary Years Programme.
The programme is a transdisciplinary IB PYP curriculum delivered through a programme of inquiry, informed by EtonHouse's Reggio Emilia-inspired approach and supported by the group's own research and training arm. Language learning is a strength:
- a bilingual environment with English and Mandarin educators throughout the day
- ZhongHua Full Mandarin Immersion for Pre-Nursery and Nursery 1 children
- a Japanese programme taught by an in-house specialist
Families come from more than 20 countries, and multicultural activities help children build respect for different cultures. The campus has a large outdoor area for sport and exploration and safe indoor learning spaces. After pre-school, children can continue at one of EtonHouse's three primary schools, including EtonHouse Orchard in the city centre.
