The International Award-Winning Bilingual (English & Chinese) Preschool has now arrived in with thoughtfully designed, custom-built play and learning spaces, our environment is bright, open, and spacious—providing the ideal setting for children to explore, discover, and realise their full potential.
Extensive research highlights that the first six years of a child’s life are the most critical for brain development. Studies show that children immersed in a bilingual learning environment gain measurable advantages, including:
Executive function is a set of skills that includes working memory, flexible thinking and task switching. These are all linked to attentional control, which researchers have found to increase in infants immersed in a bilingual environment compared to those raised in monolingual environments.
Bilingual children have been shown to outperform children who only speak one language on tasks involving cognition and problem solving.
Research has found that a bilingual environment improves ‘metalinguistic awareness’, verbal working memory and word learning in children. The increase in executive function also improves text decoding even when the vocabulary is still growing.
A 30-year study found that children immersed in a bilingual educational environment were happier at school, had higher attendance and less behavioural problems.
Multilingualism has a protective effect on the brain, enabling it to function at a higher level for longer, aided by increased cognitive reserve partly due to changes made in early brains when listening to and learning multiple languages.
Our programmes and routines adapt to suit the needs of all the children under our care. So what does this look like for each stage?
Our absolute focus is to provide a safe nurturing space for your child. Our educators are passionate about seizing meaningful moments to engage young minds from the very beginning. Our seasonal menus are designed specifically to nourish their growing bodies.
During these years, positive learning experiences have a cumulative effect on a child’s mind, building layers of neural pathways to create the foundation for lifelong learning. During these years, our S.M.I.L.E.S™ curriculum will be the most effective, showing the rapid development of a child’s growth daily.
The Preschool years are an exciting time for children and families as they prepare for their next major milestone of starting Primary School. Building on the foundations laid in the early years, this is where the learning journey is enhanced and takes to a new level
