FUTURE-PROOF YOUR CHILD

Through our iUnique Curriculum in a Trilingual Environment

iUnique Curriculum – AI, HI, MI

At ChildFirst, an award-winning pre-school, we focus on creating a unique three-pronged curriculum comprised of artificial intelligence, human intelligence, and multiple intelligences. Artificial Intelligence (AI) will be the greatest disruptor in your child’s lifetime; your child needs to master AI to avoid being replaced by it. In addition, mastering Human Intelligence (HI) skills such as creativity will be critical. As a top pre-school in Singapore, we focus on nurturing these types of skills, which are not easily replaceable by robots, will be even more highly valued in the future. Finally, we encourage your child to develop Multiple Intelligences (MI) so that your child can find his or her own niche, develop it, gain confidence, and excel in life.

in a Trilingual Environment – English, Chinese, Coding

Learning a language is effortless when young children are immersed in that language environment. As a leading provider of childcare in Singapore, ChildFirst is the first trilingual pre-school to provide immersion in the three most important languages around the world in the future: English (half-day immersion daily), Chinese (half-day immersion daily) and Coding (the language for AI and robots). Although AI can translate languages, having experience as a native speaker of English and Chinese with an awareness of these cultures will give your child a distinct advantage. Coding for pre-schoolers, of course, is surrounded by a culture of technology and innovation.

What Parents Say

One of the aspects that particularly stood out to me was the exceptional Chinese curriculum. As a foreigner, my children do not have exposure to Chinese outside of their time at school. Now that my eldest has graduated from ChildFirst, I can confidently say that he is fluent in Chinese for his age. We often receive compliments from native Chinese speakers on his fluency and accent.

Laura DomínguezParent of children, age 4, 5, 7 & 8

ChildFirst’s English and Chinese curriculum are very good. They prepare the kids well ahead before starting primary 1. My son is very active so it came as a shock when he was selected to compete at the National Robotics Competition. However, we saw his full concentration and focus during the competition. It only proved that the teachers at ChildFirst made learning enjoyable and my child could excel.
