A New Era of Early Education Begins as Amber Unveils Singapore’s School of the Future

Childhood is meant to be magical, and Amber is bringing that magic back. Now open along East Coast Road, Amber is a new-generation preschool designed to spark imagination, build confidence, and give children a school experience they wake up excited for.

Spanning over 7,000 square feet, Amber was conceived as an environment that blends adventure, comfort and purposeful learning. From sensory-smart spatial design to future-ready programmes such as robotics, creative coding and resilience development, Amber redefines early school life as a journey of joy, discovery and meaningful growth.

Future-Ready Education Rooted in Heart and Purpose

Amber’s curriculum is purposefully built around a Mind–Body–Soul framework that nurtures children as whole individuals beyond academics.

• Mind builds strong early literacy and numeracy while nurturing emotional and mental resilience for confident adaptable thinkers.
• Body develops physical coordination and motor skills while fostering healthy body image, self-care habits, and a positive relationship with food to nurture self-love from a young age.
• Soul strengthens emotional vocabulary, empathy, and social skills while cultivating emotional intelligence and meaningful connections through thoughtful communication. By blending Reggio-inspired exploration with future-ready learning and a vibrant Mandarin Everyday curriculum, Amber prepares children not just for primary school, but for life, helping them develop secure identities, emotional resilience, curiosity and adaptability. This comes through highly intentional routines, spaces that regulate nervous systems, and learning that values voice, individuality and imagination, all delivered in an accessible model that does not rely on premium fee tiers.
  

A Centre Made for the Rhythm of Modern Working Families

Amber is purposefully designed by its founders, who are themselves busy working parents, to support the realities of today’s busy families. The school offers meaningful learning within warm, welcoming, and practical environments.

Children enjoy immersive classrooms, imaginative play areas, and purpose-built spaces that spark curiosity, support emotional regulation, and encourage exploration.

At the same time, Amber recognises the day-to-day needs of working parents. Dedicated holding spaces in the lobby offer a comfortable alternative to typical crowded waiting corners, providing a clean, cosy nook where parents can manage quick tasks or take a brief pause during drop-off and pick-up.

These thoughtful touches make everyday routines smoother and more manageable for families navigating busy schedules.

Amber is not just designed — it is imagined into existence.

Using AI visualisation tools, the founders translated ideas into digital concepts, which were then refined by experienced builders into safe, practical, child-ready spaces. This approach led to standout environments not typically found in conventional childcare centres, starting with a life-sized treehouse at the entrance.

Guided by a Magical Woodlands theme, every classroom has its own story, allowing children to bring fairytales to life with curated props and scenic
backdrops.

The Calming Library

A dedicated warm, cushioned space for quiet reading and calm moments, where children can enjoy stories comfortably and teachers can also unwind or read alongside them, creating a shared environment of rest and relaxation

The Songbird Music Studio

Step-up seating so children can move, sing, listen and participate more confidently in group music sessions, giving them the experience almost like a mini performance every week.

The Magical Water Cave

Designed around a towering jellyfish installation, children immerse in water play that encourages movement, sensory exploration, and peer interaction because learning flows differently when hands, feet and imagination meet water.

Woven throughout Amber is a calming, nature-inspired design where wooden finishes form
pathway walls that feel like walking within the trunk of a tree.

Children move through spaces that feel immersive yet grounding, supported by gentle lighting, soft textures, and wide walkways that make transitions, play and group moments smooth, safe, and joyful.

High-Quality Early Education That Remains Accessible

Created with working parents in mind, Amber is built on the belief that excellent early education should never be out of reach.

Through flexible care plans, fair and transparent fees, and a steadfast commitment to high-quality learning, Amber ensures that families can access a future-ready preschool experience without the substantial financial commitments typically seen in the sector.

Led by Next Generation Educators with Real Track Records

Amber is guided by a passionate team of founders and educators who bring both vision and real-world experience to the school. Serial entrepreneur Ms. Cassandra Riene leads the initiative, bringing a fresh, forward-thinking perspective to early childhood education.

She is joined by two educational leaders with proven track records:

• Ms. Bridget Kang, Founding Partner & Centre Director, was named HoneyKids Asia Gold “Principal of the Year” in 2024 and brings 15 years of experience in Singapore’s top preschool networks. Holding a Master of Education (Practitioner Specialisation) and a Bachelor of Science in Early Childhood Education & Leadership Studies, Bridget is known for creating nurturing, innovative, and high-quality learning environments.
• Ms. Joscelin Loo, Founding Partner & Curriculum Director, holds a Bachelor of Education in Early Childhood and brings over seven years of experience in Singapore preschools. Joscelin shapes Amber’s curriculum to be engaging, forward-looking, and designed to develop confident, curious, and resilient learners.
  

Together, this leadership team combines entrepreneurial vision with deep pedagogical expertise and a strong commitment to educator well-being, ensuring that Amber is not just a school, but a place where children thrive and families feel fully supported.
