This New Villa-Inspired Kindergarten With Eco Features & Child-Centric Approach Opens This September!

International French School (IFS) will soon welcome young learners to their new kindergarten campus, which features a unique villa concept, sustainable features, and a child-centric education philosophy.

Opening in September 2025, International French School (IFS)’s new Kindergarten will raise the standard for sustainable international schools. Known for their multilingual education in English, French and Mandarin, IFS seamlessly integrates eco-conscious innovations and design features that will inspire the next generation to become global leaders with sustainability in mind. Thanks to their child-centric approach, students at IFS are empowered to take responsibility, become independent and develop a lifelong passion for learning. This new kindergarten perfectly embodies these values, and we couldn’t be more excited!

Unique villa concept with eco-friendly features

At IFS’s new kindergarten campus, children become part of a vibrant, connected community. Inspired by the layout of villas, the campus features four generously sized classrooms linked by a central communal hub, known as the Agora. This thoughtfully designed space encourages little ones to interact, collaborate and explore new ways of learning.

IFS believes that protecting our planet begins in early childhood. That’s why the new kindergarten has been built with sustainability at its core. The entire campus runs on solar energy, ensuring a fully carbon-neutral learning environment. Special double-glazed, low-emissivity windows keep out heat and harmful UV rays while allowing the space to be flooded with natural light.

To keep students cool, smart air-conditioning works in tandem with energy-efficient ceiling fans, minimising energy use without compromising comfort. Meanwhile, every drop of rainwater is collected in underground tanks and filtered through advanced Feature Planting Troughs, which nourish lush greenery and reduce the school’s environmental footprint.

Child-centric education that nurtures a love for learning

Combining their beautifully designed, eco-friendly campus with their child-centric educational philosophy, IFS sets the stage for little ones to start their educational journey on the right foot. The proven curriculum, rooted in French pedagogy, focuses on five key areas: language, mathematics, physical activity, arts and understanding the world. This comprehensive and child-centred framework ensures a well-rounded education.

Here, young learners are encouraged to take responsibility, gain independence and collaboration skills. Through this approach, the passionate teachers here help children develop strong self-esteem and discover a lifelong passion for learning.
