William (5)
All three of our children have been
attending SJI International Elementary
School (SJIIES) since Prep 1. Gracie is
now in Grade 3, Matt in Grade 1 and
Will in Prep 2. Having looked at several
schools in Singapore, I knew that SJIIES
was the one for us after visiting it in
2009. The school was recommended
to me by close family friends and I was
attracted by the feeling of community,
the Catholic Lasallian ethos of the
school and the strength of the virtues
programme that is projected throughout
all aspects of school life.

right from the start. Additionally, it’s one
of the first international schools to
offer the Singapore Maths curriculum
combined with an international
humanities programme and Mandarin.
This felt like the best of all worlds.
My children thoroughly enjoy their
school experience. The teachers are
enthusiastic and committed both in the
classroom and beyond the academic
aspects – they put a lot of effort into
extracurricular activities, too. They
are professional and nurturing at the
same time.
We have been very happy with
the school’s excellent teachers and
learning environment. The school has
also continued investing in its facilities,
recently completing an indoor sports
facility and an outdoor pool.
