Etonhouse Internatio­nal School

-

Kimi attends Secondary 1 ( Year 7) at the Etonhouse Internatio­nal School at Broadrick. She started in Year 1 and then left towards the end of Year 4 due to our family relocating. She rejoined Etonhouse in Secondary 1 when we returned to Singapore.

The staff and teachers at Etonhouse are incredibly profession­al and dedicated. The school helps us in every way to make Kimi’s campus experience enjoyable. We also often have get-togethers with other parents and their children outside campus. In terms of teaching, the learning is made fun. We like that the school is educating and developing the children holistical­ly, not just for academics.

At the Secondary level, the school has an Outdoor Education programme that Kimi is enjoying very much. This includes a variety of adventure challenges such as orienteeri­ng, archery and rock climbing, which has helped test and develop her physical, social and personal skills. She always comes home happy and with many stories to tell. She has gained much confidence and independen­ce through her everyday interactio­ns with teachers and classmates. The school also keeps parents up to date with our children’s progress.

When we arrived in Singapore, we checked out schools in the East area and shortliste­d Etonhouse. When we visited the campus, we felt that it was the right school for Kimi. We were very impressed with the school’s values, philosophy, and cultural and linguistic diversity, as well as its solid and well- rounded curriculum. The school is warm and welcoming, focusing on each individual child and their talents. Etonhouse has pushed the boundaries of Kimi’s capabiliti­es while still making it enjoyable for Broadrick Campus, 51 Broadrick Road | 6346 6922 Thomson Campus, 8 Thomson Lane | 6252 3322 ehis.edu.sg
