The OJS Journey
Our Juniors’ Schoolhouse offers a whole host of childcare services and preschool programmes to cater to the varying needs of parents and children.
The Playgroup programme caters to children between 18 and 30 months. They are highly curious and at the stage of exploring the world around them, trying to master skills on their own. Their days are filled with plenty of interaction and hands on activities that encourage them to move, observe with their eyes, touch, feel, taste, smell and listen. Early language and numeracy skills are introduced through the process.
Three year olds are highly imaginative and live in a world of make-believe. A typical day is filled with lots of stories, pretend play, songs and rhymes, creative play and art & craft. A multi-modal approach introduces phonological awareness. Bilingual focus with equal emphasis on both English and Mandarin language begins here!
Four year olds are really inquisitive and expressive! Awaiting them each day are plentiful opportunities to freely chat, ask, show tell, and explore purposefully. Good preparation for the Kindergarten years amid the fun & excitement!
Five year olds are responsible and have lots of initiative! Weaved into the programme are activities that promote active independent learning. The Juniors’ Curriculum is well-aligned with MOE’s preschool learning outcomes, thus ensuring our children a good foundation for the next stage of education. Through fun and purposeful play, our children learn new concepts in math, grow language skills and accumulate new knowledge in science and the world around them at this important stage of their development.
Six year olds are exuberantly vocal, eager to learn and be challenged! Every day is filled with activities that promote cooperative teamwork, discovery and independent thinking. We utilise the best educational research, tools, and time-tested methods to effectively prepare our children for life beyond preschool. The Juniors’ Curriculum is rigorous to ensure our juniors enter primary school capable and confident. More importantly, we ensure they graduate from kindergarten socially and emotionally well equipped to take on any new and challenging situations that come their way.
