We’ve been living in Singapore for around three and a half years. Our children
have been attending AIS since 2012 – Chloe is currently in her second year
in the Early Years Centre (EYC), while Greta attended the EYC for two years
before starting in Prep last year.
We have always heard positive feedback about the school from our
Australian and international friends alike. We visited the school and liked its
philosophy, the IB programme, the EYC learning approach and the facilities. We
liked that the EYC had its own campus within the bigger school. The children
have their own dedicated playground space, library and learning centre. The
fact that all of the girls are able to attend the same school was an added bonus.
AIS offers a great mix of international and Australian culture, so it gave the
girls a touch of home with a global outlook. We couldn’t be more pleased with
our choice – we are often reassured by how much they are learning there.
The flexibility of the three-, four- and five-day programmes also helps families
decide what works best for their schedules.
The school offers a daily Mandarin programme that engages the kids in
learning songs, words and numbers in that language. Gym sessions occur
weekly and all gross motor skills are covered. There is also a weekly book-
borrowing programme in which kids get to interact with the teacher librarian
at the Inquiry Centre.
We would definitely recommend AIS EYC to our friends. The curriculum
and nurturing environment really get the children prepared for the next stage
of their schooling.
