Key Learning Approaches
Pre-Nursery (18 months to 2 years)
At Pre-Nursery, your child will develop essential social, language, physical, and cognitive skills. By fostering independent and collaborative learning, we help children become skilful communicators, using both verbal and non-verbal strategies.
Through thoughtfully planned inquiries and an early-learning framework, your child will explore the world, strengthening problem-solving, fine motor, and gross motor skills.
Nursery (3 – 4 years)
In the Nursery class, we create a safe, nurturing environment for your child to become an independent thinker and communicator. Carefully designed classroom settings support literacy and numeracy development alongside social growth.
With the introduction of the Cambridge EYFS framework in Nursery 2, your child will begin their academic journey through structured yet engaging learning experiences. Interactive activities in music, visual art, and play foster creativity while strengthening language and literacy skills. Early mathematics, science, and technology concepts are introduced through hands-on exploration, setting the foundation for cognitive and academic growth.
Kindergarten (5 – 6 years)
The Kindergarten programme is where inquiry-based learning meets structured preparation for primary education. Your child will explore ideas, solve problems, and deepen their understanding of concepts through guided projects and collaboration with peers.
Trilingual learning (English, Mandarin, and Bahasa Melayu) supports daily language development in listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Cambridge EYFS strengthens academic foundations, particularly in mathematics, science, and technology, ensuring your child is ready for both inquiry-based learning and formal primary education.
As part of their preparation, children engage in activities that enhance critical thinking, independence, and adaptability. Our teachers also assist families with primary school assessments, ensuring a seamless transition to both international and local schools.
At Ivy Kids Pre-School, every step of your child’s journey is crafted to inspire curiosity, confidence, and a lifelong love for learning!
