Reading
Programme
This aims to cultivate a love
for reading in the children. The
Centre's library is well stocked
with books that cater to the varied
ages and interests of children.
Character-building
Programme
About an hour a week is allotted
for this purpose. This is an essential
aspect of a child's development.
It is one of our goals that children
attending our centre develop positive
values such as integrity and moral
uprightness, and behavioural traits
of sharing, co-operation, responsibility
for self and others, care for
others etc.
Character-building
brings Success.

During the school holidays, we
bring the children on field trips,
excursions, camps and conduct
other fun and enriching activities.

The monthly fee per child is S$250.
For low-income families, subsidies
from the Ministry of Community
Development and Sports (MCDS)
are available. The centre charges
monthly fees of S$280 for the
