Apple Tree is a leading educare centre where joy and knowledge links children, parents and teachers.
A place where:
– CHILDREN will enjoy growing intellectually and emotionally

– PARENTS are assured that the child’s best interest are taken care of
WE OFFER :
Infant Care
- 2 months to 24 months
We provide tender loving care for your precious ones as they take the next step in their journey. We will look after their feeding and personal needs and mind them like our own. Care is provided by local, experienced and committed care-givers.
When they first start their solids journey, we will include organic vegetables in their meals. We also have updated apparatus to assist in making yummy and nutritious fare for them.
Air purifiers, water purifier and steam sterilizer are a few of the gadgets we have to assist in ensuring a clean and hygienic environment for the little ones.
Most importantly, we only care for a small number of infants at a time.
Nursery
- 2 years to 4 years
This is the most crucial part of a child’s development as this is where motor skills, cognitive thinking and language skills are developed. This is also the time their CHARACTER is slowly building forming the foundation of their future self.
We start by teaching them to be independent and to socialize with others. Once they have got that down pat, we move on to formal learning, where alphabets, numbers, different languages and writing are introduced.
But the chief focus here is in building up positive and sustaining character traits in them.
Kindergarten
- 5 to 6 years
In this next stage, they will be preparing for primary school and formal learning will be brought to a new level with individual science kits and quizzes to stimulate their inquisitive minds.
The essential part of this stage is guiding them, intellectually and emotionally in preparation for the next phase of their journey.
And now...
With the uncertainty of when preschools can open, we are sure you must be concerned in how to proceed. Fret not, we are here to provide you a SOLUTION!
With months of proven SUCCESS in making the kids smile and have FUN with zoom guided activities at home PLUS learning along the way, we may have found a good way to connect with the children even not attending the physical class.
Apple Tree VIRTUAL SCHOOL provides a structured syllabus, made up of equal parts fun and learning activities with qualified teachers from an established preschool.
We would like to do our part in making sure children are not left behind socially and in their learning journey, and have decided to open this program to all.
I found out about apple tree through a british expat blog. I had been looking for a creche for my 15 months old and apple tree is one of very few accepting babies under 18 months. I was highly impressed with the interaction with the owner and teachers alike. I do feel that both my girls who now attend are in safe and caring hands. I wish the school could expand to take in international students with IB curriculum

the teachers are great and somehow they can really create a bonding with the children. my child will come back home and keep mentioning how good her day at the school and what she and her friends shared. I believed that the teachers are doing a great job at creating an environment for the children that makes them feel at home. I would strongly recommend the school to other parents who want to look for good school in town.

As a working parent, I am glad that I have enrolled my daughter in Apple Tree. Compare to her previous nursery, Apple Tree is a better nursery & kindergarten due to various reasons. She has changed a lot in her personalities and behaviour since I enrolled her here. She is more creative and mature in her thinking and she is not so shy to strangers anymore. And I also notice that she is more well mannered and independent. Teachers are friendly, open minded, helpful, responsible and really passionate about educating children. Parents are well informed about their children performance and behaviour in school.

everything is being well in the nursery and kindergarten. my child is happy to go there in the morning. the teachers there are being helpful and friendly too. I found that she has learnt a lot of new things after she started in apple tree. she also knows to tidy up her things like shoes, bag by herself and she is becoming more and more active and loves to mix with other children.

we choose to enroll our daughter at apple tree because there is a very open line of communication between the staff and the parents. the staff themselves are very knowledgeable and into what each individual child's needs are. they are very flexible, and there is always a teacher there to guide and answer any questions that you many have.
