Did you catch our coverage of the International French School (IFS)‘s groundbreaking ceremony in March 2023? Marking the official expansion of the school’s facilities, which will include the construction of a new kindergarten and an extension of the elementary school, the ceremony was co-hosted by IFS and Minister of Foreign Affairs, Dr. Balakrishnan in presence of the French Ambassador to Singapore, Mme Minh-di Tang. The new IFS (Singapore) Kindergarten BCA Green Mark Platinum (Zero Energy) building is set to be a revolutionary kindergarten in Singapore that sets the benchmark for sustainable and energy-efficient design. Slated to be completed by mid-2025, the kindergarten is designed to incorporate advanced green technology, including rainwater harvesting systems, energy-efficient lighting, hybrid air-conditioning, and photo-voltaic energy generation. This zero-energy kindergarten is the only one of its kind in Singapore, and demonstrates the school’s commitment to creating an environmentally conscious future. The French education system places a great emphasis on environmental sustainability, teaching students from an early age the value of renewable energy, waste reduction, and green living. Keep your eyes peeled for its opening in 2025!
