PRE-SCHOOLS

White Lodge Kindergarten

Sofia Barrios (Venezuelan) and Jose Leon (Costa Rican)

Isabella (4) and Diego (2)

Both Isabella and Diego have attended White Lodge at Upper

Bukit Timah since they were 18months old, and our experience

has been amazing. We heard about the school through a

neighbour, a recommendation in

Expat Living

and by generally

asking around. We decided to enrol the children there because it’s

a school that balances everything: clean facilities, good teachers,

a great programme, stimulating activities and engagement with

the parents.

The kids don’t spend the whole day in one place: they rotate

through an indoor play area, an outdoor area with a roof, a music

and movement area and a painting area. There are also frequent

activities for parents; we enjoy these and feel very attached to the

school and the teachers.

Isabella had a six-month break from White Lodge to attend

another school, because we needed her to be in full-time school

when Diego was born. This gave us the opportunity to compare

the two schools. When she returned to White Lodge, the first thing

she said was, “I love White Lodge; please, Mummy, don’t send

me to the other school again.”

The weekly Friday bulletin is one of our favourite things: it

includes lots of pictures of the kids with their friends and the

activities they have been involved in for the week. We are really

pleased with White Lodge. It was a great decision to enrol our

kids there.

Isabella says: “I love the indoor play,

because I can have fun in the kitchen,

dress up, or read in the library corner,

and there are cars, dolls and dinosaurs.

I love dressing up as a princess!”

Whitelodge has kindergartens at eight locations.
