The MOE Kindergarten curriculum is based on MOE’s Nurturing Early Learners Framework, which puts a strong emphasis on character building and nurturing a joy of learning. Children in MOE Kindergarten have opportunities to be bilingual in both English and one of the three Mother Tongue Languages – Chinese, Malay and Tamil. More importantly, the forward-thinking curriculum emphasises executive functioning skills, as well as social and emotional learning, such as skills for emotional regulation. These are essential life skills that lay the foundation for future learning. It’s one of the main reasons one parent loves MOE Kindergarten @ Horizon, “The MOE Kindergarten curriculum emphasises holistic development, including social and emotional learning. I appreciate it greatly that my child is receiving a well-rounded education.” ~ Ms. Shahlizah Binte Razali

Enriching Learning Environment with Outdoor Play

Children learn through play. At MOE Kindergarten, children can get up close with nature and engage in fun outdoor activities to give them a healthy start to life. Since MOE Kindergartens are sited within a primary school, children get to run around spacious, grassy fields and burn off their energy at the outdoor playground. The experienced teachers at MOE Kindergarten intentionally nurture essential life skills both in and outside the classroom, not just by teaching but by modelling.

As one parent shares, “Other than the fantastic teachers and programme, I also like the variety of resources available for children. There are spacious and meaningful learning corners in the classrooms. Outdoor play is not just playing at the playground – it’s carefully planned for opportunities to develop and strengthen children’s motor skills.” ~ Mr and Mrs Lee, parents from MOE Kindergarten @ Riverside.

MOE Kindergarten’s transition efforts, which includes visits to the primary school for children in Kindergarten 2, as well as ongoing collaboration with the primary school, can help your child adapt and adjust quickly.
