At our thriving international preschool in Singapore, our 3 to 5-year-olds (nursery and reception) follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum.
Our early years experts will guide your child through the seven interconnected areas of EYFS learning. These are explored through a range of topics that capture our children’s interest, spark their curiosity, and engage them in purposeful play.
The Reggio Emilia approach encourages our youngest learners to explore, be curious, and engage with the people and environment around them.
Learning is driven by the child, who actively co-constructs the direction of the curriculum. This encourages self-expression, communication, teamwork, and problem-solving. Our students are also supported to connect with and gain a deeper understanding of key themes through a variety of meaningful activities.
Age-appropriate sessions introduce our youngest students to Mandarin, music, PE, and swimming.
Mandarin lessons are taught by our native language specialists through thematic units and topics. Speaking and listening skills are embedded using games, songs, poems, stories, repetition, and role play.
Enriched by our collaboration with The Juilliard School, our music programme gives our youngest students early access to high quality music-making, instrument learning, and performance activities.
Our PE teachers and coaches introduce students to multi-sports, throwing, jumping, running, and catching, which develop their balance, coordination, and gross and fine motor skills. We also teach our children to swim and feel safe in the water.
We understand that you are your child’s first teacher. We really value the partnerships we have with our families, which ensure our students get the most from their education.
You’ll be able to follow your child’s progress on our SeeSaw platform. We’ll also send you weekly updates, invite you to assemblies where students showcase what they’ve learnt, and run workshops that help you continue learning at home.
Inclusivity and success go hand in hand at Dover Court. From an early age, your child’s education will be built around their needs, strengths, and passions, ensuring they flourish.
