About White Lodge
Welcome to White Lodge Education Group Services which operates all White Lodge kindergartens and centres. These centres provide and promote the most advanced early childhood education and care in Singapore.
The first school was started in August 1999 with White Lodge Early Learning Centre at Linden Drive. This was followed by White Lodge kindergartens in South Buona Vista and Jalan Siap, which were set up in June 2003 and April 2005 respectively. As White Lodge’s reputation grew, there were many requests to open a fourth kindergarten. White Lodge Kindergarten (East Coast) was opened in December 2005 to meet this demand. In November 2006, the fifth educational facility was opened in Loewen Gardens. This is registered as an activity centre, which has drop-off programmes as well as a special Parent and Child Programme.
White Lodge’s philosophy is to support, nurture, teach and care for each child individually so that they grow in understanding, awareness and responsibility. The comprehensive curriculum is based on the most up-to-date education practices and revolves around a guided, child-centred programme. Mandarin is also integrated into the programmes.
Children at White Lodge not only learn the traditional elements of education, but are also challenged and involved in a far wider world of learning and development. The children are encouraged to think broadly and creatively, to develop advanced interacting and socialising skills, to build confidence in themselves as well as the belief that they have the ability to tackle any challenges given. They leave the centres equipped with language, mathematical and writing skills but perhaps more importantly, with a lively curiosity and interest in the world around them.
The White Lodge group of kindergartens now serve over 500 students of which 90% are expatriates. The students come from over 25 different countries in Asia Pacific, Europe and America. White Lodge’s children are therefore constantly exposed to diverse cultures and practices in their everyday interactions, giving them a head start to living in a globalised world.
