Almost every Singaporean parent has one thing in common – stressing over academic excellence. It’s hard to run away from it, given the competitive society we live in. Preparation for formal education begins from the pre-school years as it forms the bedrock of your child’s early education.
However, that’s not to say that pre-school must compromise on fun and exploration. Here at Brighton Montessori, we strike a perfect balance and provide your child with excellent preparation for formal education!
What’s more, we are now even closer to you with our latest centre at Harbourfront Centre. Read on to find out more!
An Introduction To Brighton Montessori, Singapore’s Favourite Montessori Preschool
Our school believes that every child learns at his or her own pace. We celebrate the individuality of each child and challenge them to their maximum potential in a creative, stimulating, and supportive learning environment.
What started as a humble enrichment centre in 1995, has now become the Montessori preschool of choice in Singapore with centres across the island. In fact, we are opening our sixth centre at Harbourfront Centre this October. With our latest centre, we are now closer to you and more convenient than ever. Here’s what we have to offer your child:
1. Every Child Is Different And That’s Great!
Here at Brighton Montessori, we believe in cultivating each child’s interests individually and giving them the freedom to explore and grasp concepts of language, mathematics, and more, all at their own pace.
Given the space and time, we firmly believe that every child can and will learn. By the end of their journey with us, our students are more than prepared to begin their foray into formal education!
Jazreel Wong, Mother of Cherish, shares:
“Brighton has a comprehensive, all-rounded curriculum which puts my child ahead of others in the same age group. Under the guidance of Brighton Montessori, Cherish is now competent in Math and proficient in English and Chinese. The teachers and staff are always attentive and loving – I never have to worry whenever I drop my child off, knowing she will be in the best of hands!”
2. Less Means More
When it comes to teacher-child ratio, every parent would agree that less means more. Fewer students means more time for quality interaction and for teachers to give children the attention they deserve.
Brighton Montessori is a preschool of choice in Singapore with teacher-child ratios lower than industry regulations, ensuring that your child receives personalised attention and guidance.
As such, we can ensure that they are progressing to meet their learning goals. In addition, we have a curriculum specialist to support the development of lesson plans to monitor, adapt and refine each child’s learning needs.
3. We Work With You Closely!
We know how anxious and excited you are about your child’s learning journey and rightfully so! Every parent wants to know all about what their precious little ones do in school.
We understand this and believe in an open-door communication practice and a strong partnership with you.
Our educators always set time to communicate and ensure that you are well-informed about what your child is learning in school.
Matthew Boylan, parent of Paris Boylan comments,
“Where it be the daily check-in email, the WhatsApp messages, telephone calls, or the hardcopy collateral, the quality and quantity of the communications facilitates a feeling of being involved and invested in your child’s development and educational experience. I would also like to add that both the Principal and Teaching Staff have always made themselves available after school hours to address any enquiries.”
4. A Conducive And Purposefully Designed Environment
One of the most important aspects of a preschool is the learning environment. Children need to love their learning environment and look forward to being in it.
An important feature of Montessori education is in fact the aesthetics of the learning environment and the accessibility of learning materials.
We’ve put in a lot of thought into our learning spaces and designed it to be seen through the eyes of a child. Materials are arranged attractively and within the child’s reach.
As such, it motivates them to explore, interact and learn independently. We also provide the space and opportunity for children to express themselves freely!
5. Primary School? Bring It On!
It’s all fun and games until it’s time for your child to start formal education. Most Singaporean parents take formal education seriously and expect their child to be well-prepared for primary school by the end of their preschool years.
We know that there’s no running away from this and that’s why, we’ve ensured that our curriculum prepares your child for formal education.
In fact, primary school readiness is one of our hallmarks. This is one of the reasons we are a preschool of choice in Singapore. In fact, some of our alumni have even remarked that Brighton Montessori ‘overprepared’ them for primary one!
We know that the transition from preschool to primary school is a huge jump for children and we strive to make that transition as smooth as seamless as possible for them.
Keosy Sengmanee, Mother of Marcus & Caroline says,
“Brighton has played an invaluable part in my children’s development. The dedication, commitment, and care from the principals and teachers are second to none. Brighton prepared Marcus for primary school where he is doing very well both academically and holistically.”
7. Good Things Get Better
Because good things can only get better, we are now expanding our reach to the southern region of Singapore. To be more accessible to you, this October brings the opening of our sixth centre at Harbourfront Centre!
As an opening special, we are offering a full waiver of registration fees, 2 sets of uniform, and 1 set of PE attire as well as enrichment kits (1 set of Hot Lava and Introduction to Space worth $40) for free.
If you do stay with us for 6 months, you are also entitled to 15% off the school fee in the 5th and 6th months. Take advantage of this promotion and you could save well over $1600!
Seeing is believing so do make a trip to our latest centre. The best time to book your free tour of our new campus is before it starts operating for once it does, tours can only take place outside of centre operational hours.
Mums and dads, we know that finding the right preschool for your child is a tall order. Brighton Montessori makes a great choice for your child, and you can have peace of mind knowing that they will learn at their own pace yet leave preschool more than ready for formal education.
Preschool education leaves a lasting impression and is often the first step to raising a happy and confident child who is ready to thrive, and that’s what we offer you!
