COMPANY PROFILE

We are a small local start-up formed on encouragement and support from parents, students and fellow educators.

Our founder, Miss Joyce Sim, had worked very closely with MOE officers from the Pre-School Unit on the New Integrated Curriculum with a Holistic Approach which has since been extended to the Primary Schools. She has been doing in-dept studies and researches on the Integrated Curriculum for the past six years and has designed several effective and well-received courses to meet the needs of today’s children.

We aim to provide the highest quality education at affordable fees to benefit the children and their families in general.

We will subsidise the course fees for children from underprivileged families who are keen to improve themselves.

Our Mission

• Helping children to become active, spontaneous and gracious learners who are mentally, socio-emotionally and physically healthy.
• To work closely with parents and encourage them to spend personal, quality time with their children at home and to ensure that all learning areas are taken care of.

Message from Joyce Sim:

I am an ordinary individual who possesses great passion in promoting best education for young children. I believe that good programmes and effective teaching methods should be shared and passed on to benefit more children in the long run.

I am strongly encouraged and influenced by Dr Gillian Potter, a distinguished lecturer from Australia, to contribute to and advocate for the benefits of children's education.

Hopefully, my efforts will have a positive influence on the children and their parents.
