Siti Nadiah

Principal

Bachelor in Early Childhood Studies

Tell me and I forget, teach me and I remember, involve me and I learn.” This quote by Benjamin Franklin which Nadiah firmly believes in reminds her that children learn best through hands-on experiences. Children learn from observing, imitating and experimenting with their hands and body as soon as they are born. With great partnerships between educators and families, learning in school and at home through hands-on experiences continues to be the most important way of learning new skills for children.

What Sets our POP Workplace Preschool in Thomson Road Apart

The Little Skool-House preschool in the Singapore Ministry of Social and Family Development (MSF) building has been awarded the Spark certification and the Healthy PreSchools (HPS) Accreditation. Our award-winning educators nurture a supportive learning environment whereby the importance of proper nutrition is taught to all children on a daily basis. An active lifestyle is also fostered amongst the children in the outdoor play area. This reassures parents that when their child is enrolled in our Thomson Road preschool, they will reap optimal health and educational outcomes.

What is the difference between Little Skool-House centres that are under the Partner Operator (POP) scheme and those that aren’t?

At Little Skool-House, we have a network of centres, with 14 centres operating under the Partner Operator (POP) scheme governed by ECDA. This initiative aims to enhance accessibility, affordability, and quality of childcare services for working parents.

Besides our consistent core curriculum and teaching approach, our 6 non-POP centres offer supplementary enriching programmes such as music, sports, and our exclusive REACH (Read Chinese at Home) programme. The REACH programme provides weekly take-home books and accompanying audio guides for learning support at home, empowering parents to be more involved in their child’s education. These centres also boast superior facilities for a comfortable and stimulating environment. Parents are also able to chat real-time with our teachers and be updated on their child’s progress via our Parent App. Additionally, these centres maintain a lower teacher-child ratio for more individualised attention.
