You can tell a lot about a kindergarten from how its students behave – and at 3Q MRC Putra Prima, it's clear that the children here are happy and confident. Not only are they polite and well mannered, but the children are also curious and keen to explore, judging from how they greeted this writer during her visit, and the way in which they asked questions.
For parents looking for a preschool that blends academics with meaningful life skills and character building, 3Q MRC Putra Prima ticks all the boxes. Established in 2006 by Ms. Jean Leong, who has extensive experience in early childhood education, the school offers a rich curriculum and engaging thematic activities based on the renowned 3Q™ system, which focuses on whole-brain development to encourage critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving skills.
3Q MRC caters to children from ages 3 to 6 and features a carefully planned curriculum across key subjects, including English, Chinese, Bahasa Malaysia, Mathematics, and Science. Each subject is age-appropriate, with younger children being involved in more hands-on activities that train their gross and fine motor skills, and older children enjoying a balanced approach of play and academics.

Language is a crucial part of the programme and is one of 3Q MRC Putra Prima’s strengths. Each day, children learn subjects like Science and Mathematics in English during the morning session, and then review these subjects in Mandarin in the afternoon. This ensures they build strong foundational skills in both languages, setting them up for success in primary schools, especially for children going to Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan Cina (SJKC) schools.
3Q MRC Putra Prima doesn’t just focus on academics—it emphasises values that help children become compassionate, responsible individuals. Daily routines encourage positive behaviour through activities such as clean-up time after meals and role-playing, where they learn values such as sharing, kindness, and respect.
This extends beyond the classroom, as the school organises field trips to places such as mini zoos and aquariums, allowing children to gain knowledge about different animals, as well as love for the environment and the planet.
These trips may also tie into themes that they have learned in school - for example, they may visit a recycling centre as part of a recycling campaign, or an old folks home in relation to the theme of respecting one’s elders.
Parents can feel assured that 3Q MRC Putra Prima is a safe, child-friendly environment. With CCTV monitoring, gated security, and child-friendly furniture, the school is designed to protect and care for every child.
Classrooms are equipped with technology like Smart TVs, playgrounds encourage active play, and quiet reading corners offer peaceful spaces for focused activities. Facilities are cleaned and sanitised daily, while meals are prepared in-house with minimal salt, sugar, and oil.
The full-day programme at 3Q MRC Putra Prima includes a balanced schedule of learning, naptime, and activities. Children may explore their interests through enrichment activities, such as ukulele classes and arts and crafts. Teachers also help with individual homework support, and strengthen any areas where the children may need extra help in.
As for updating parents, 3Q MRC Putra Prima encourages open and transparent communication, where parents are free to discuss their child’s progress and share their feedback even outside of the regular parent-teacher meetings. Teachers regularly share updates, photos, and videos of classroom activities, keeping parents connected with their child’s learning journey.
All in all, 3Q MRC Putra Prima offers children a well-rounded education that includes character building, creativity, language fluency. Children thrive here, building the skills, confidence, and curiosity that will carry them through the next stage of life.
