Dear Parents,

Raffles House appreciates the responsibilities it carries in the education of our children. It is important for us that we constantly ask you how we are doing, in order to ensure that we do not falter in our constant search and delivery of the best for our children.

We want to thank you for your confidence and trust in our undertaking. We also want to thank the parents named below for their kind words and their consent to publish the following reviews.

Thank You.
Sincerely,
Isabel Ng
Executive Director

From Parent Kay Mason, Esme's mum.
- Esme is 2 years old.

“ Raffles House came highly recommended by a friend…. And after visiting I was confident I had found the right place for Esme…”

“ Esme was a little hesitant to leave me at first, as you would have expected, but all the staff at Raffles House took care to ensure this transition was as easy as possible. We were always met by staff who was familiar to Esme and within a matter of days Esme was waving “goodbye” and going happily into school... ”

“ I feel she has also thrived developmentally in this caring environment. She clearly loves arts and crafts and proudly brings home paintings and models she has made in school. She also surprises us with new songs she learnt and we often catch her counting and reciting her ABCs…”

“ Personally, I am also impressed with the structured education the school provides and the way this is reported back to parents. I will be truly to leave Raffles House when we return to UK and would have no hesitation in recommending this school to others… “

With kind regards,
Kay Mason

From Parent Isabella Choo, Brendan's mum.
- Brendan is 4 year old.

When my son Brendan started nursery school at a kindergarten at church,
I didn't imagine that it was going to be a traumatic experience - for
the both of us. He was maladjusted and became depressed at the end of
the first week. I was stressed, disturbed and worried when he
consistently used the words " boring", " teachers are unfriendly" and "
don't leave me here...". He never went back after attending just 7
sessions.

Now, I am paying more than double of what I did before, but I have no
regrets as it is worth every single cent ! Not only did Brendan not
shed a single tear from day one, he uses positive words for Raffles
House such as " this school is fun", " my favourite school", " I like
to go to school", "I had fun today".

Words cannot express my gratitude to your wonderful team at Raffles
House, especially to you, Ms Julie and Chinese teacher Li. All of you
made Brendan feel at home and provided him a secure environment for
play and learn. I am pleased to note your bright and cheerful set up,
as well as the high standard of cleanliness kept at all times. I also
appreciate your help to receive Brendan from the car in the morning.

I am pleasantly surprised to read very good articles on your website's
"Parent's Corner" , I find the information useful and relevant. Perhaps
the website could also be used to publicize some of the school's
activities and artwork done by the children.

Well, the month of Feburary has been a good start to a new beginning
for Brendan, and I look forward to see him grow and flourish under your
nurture and care.

Thank you for making the difference !

With kind Regards
Isabella Choo

From Parent Goh Shu Fen, Hyu Seong's and Tynn Yi's mum.
- Hyu Seong and Tynn Yi are 2 years old and 4 years old
respectively.

We have two very inquisitive and active kids aged 4 and 2. After checking out every well-known school in town, we found Raffles House Preschool an excellent choice. They have a stimulating environment, caring and committed teachers and staff, and over and above that, a management that values feedback and genuinely care about the kids. In my opinion, these are qualities that differentiate them from the rest.

First of all, I have to thank God that I chanced upon Raffles House Preschool one day while traveling along Bukit Timah Road. We have been keeping a look-out for a suitable pre-school for our child, basing on a few priorities that we set for our choice. When I visited the school one day, I was impressed by the ambience that the whole environment exudes. It is clean, spacious and pleasant. It gives me a very warm and cosy feeling. Somehow, I felt that was the school I wanted for my child, although there were still other considerations to make.

My child has been attending Raffles House Preschool for more than a month now and we can really tell that she thoroughly enjoys school. She will come home singing songs that she learnt there and get us involved with some dance steps that she learnt from her teachers. On top of that she kept on mentioning names of her teachers, meaning that she is proud of them, and has progressed tremendously in her expressions, using vocabulary that surprised us. She has also begun to show some keen interest in using Mandarin at home.

With all these little signs of progress my daughter demonstrates, we are glad that we put her in Raffles House for we feel that she felt loved there. Great curriculum and nice facilities apart, we place high priority in the quality of teachers, not so much as their qualifications, but in their genuine love for young children. For that, we can feel it in Raffles House Preschool.
