Rise N Shine Childcare Centre SS2 is a Montessori guided preschool that nurtures children to Rise N Shine like a bright star! Even children with mild disabilities do very well in this Montessori environment.
I couldn't be happier with my daughters's experience at Rise n Shine. The teachers here are not just nice, but also incredibly friendly and professional.
My 1.5 years old daughter has blossomed in their care, and every morning her first instinct is to hug her teacher, which speaks volumes about the warm and nurturing environment the school create.
My 4 year old daughter has shown remarkable improvement in her reading skills, thanks to the school's strong emphasis on phonetics for English and Pictorial strategies for Chinese. It's heartening to see her grow academically and develop a love for reading in both English and Chinese.
Additionally, the school has a user-friendly app that fosters excellent communication between teachers and parents. The class teacher upload weekly progress reports on the children's learning, which is not only informative but also strengthens the interaction between parents and the school.
However, one minor drawback is that the school takes the initiative to organize many programs that involve parents' participation. While this is generally a positive aspect, some of these activities are scheduled on weekdays, which can be challenging for working parents to attend.
Despite this minor inconvenience, I am grateful to have found such a nurturing and educational environment for my daughters.

Just to share some insights into our experience with Rise n Shine. The teachers' passions and their dedication to organizing a wide range of engaging activities impressed us, especially the mooncake festivals activities. Other activities like sports day, field trips and outdoor picnic have also made our child's educational journey truly enriching.
Even within the Montessori framework, it did strike a perfect balance between academic rigor and playful exploration. The school's clean and cozy environment creates a welcoming atmosphere that further enhances the overall experience.
Last but not least, the most remarkable transformation we've witnessed in our daughter has been her transition from shyness to outgoing confidence, all thanks to the constant encouragement she receives from the teacher.
Overall, Rise n Shine has not only instilled a love for learning in our child but has also helped her become more self assured and excited about each school day. We’ve truly grateful for the positive impact it has had on her development.

Words cannot describe how grateful I am for the good work from "Rise and Shine's" staffs team. Teachers are amazing and they have helped my children from the first day they started attending school. We as parents have seen great improvement in our children's learning skills not only in academics but in life itselfs. Teachers in Rise and Shine not only educate children but to prepare and nurture them into responsible members of the community. Kudos to the teachers for all the effort putting for the children

Highly recommended. Both my kids love school. Teachers are very responsible and hardworking. They tried their best to make homework interesting and fun --> kids learn through play. Can't wait to send my 1yo to school next year

Highly recommend child care centre, all the teachers are very patient and caring. And they have many activities for the kids to learn and have fun at the same time. I can see my son improve a lots before and after. I like their system to update weekly for the progress of what my son learnt , and communicate with parents for child improvement as well. Thank you for the passion to helping my son grow and learn.

Ever since my kid enrolled in this school, I've noticed he has improved a lot in his conversational skills, able to articulate his thoughts better and see improvement in his fine motor skills. I would like to express my upmost appreciation to the dedication of the teachers (especially teacher sabrina) for their patience and understanding.
I would also like give few suggestions:
1. Include some sport activities to foster team work, develop passion and discipline.
2. Introduction more cultural/traditional game like congkak
3. Include potty training as part of the life skill training program, of course with parents involvement at home
4. On operational aspects, would suggest additional tiers to existing childrens shoe racks. It would be easieŕ to locate and avoid misplaced incidences if shoes are placed according class. Perhaps another tier or two with sectionised dividers.
5. Waiting parents to pickup usually hang around the stairways which inadvertently distract young children in ongoing session visible thru glass partition. Suggest a chair or two at top of stairs as waiting area or cover 3 ft up with glass stickers the children study area visible both ways.
6. the reserved parking bay is highly abuse. For its convenience, people parked there for a quick bite or takeaway. Probably enlarge signage and repaint bay border to highlight might deter such acts.
The comments above are purely personal opinion derived from observations and hope it does no offence. Once again a salute to good work and dedication of Rise and Shine Management, teachers , staff and not forgetting the kakaks.

The teachers are very responsible and care about the progress of my LO. Always willing to listen to parent’s advice/comments and work with parents. I can see the growth in my child ever since he started school here.
On top of that, the environment is clean and very detailed.

My experience with Rise N Shine Childcare Centre for both of my kids was truly exceptional. The nurturing environment, dedicated teachers, and engaging activities created a perfect blend for their early development. The focus on social skills, creativity, and basic academics, especially Mandarin class, helped lay a strong foundation for their future learning.
The safe atmosphere at Rise N Shine made it feel like a second home for my child. I didn't have to worry about their well-being and it helped foster a love for learning and making friends.
Overall, it's a top-notch school that values education and emotional well-being.

Hi this is Arielle’s mom and I will be sharing my views on this kindergarten.
First of all, based on the experience of my child the teachers here are very passionate. They are very caring and patient to all the children which I believe builds trust and a good bond between the kids and their teachers.
Next, the school program Introduces a very engaging and fun learning experience for both parents and their children. I especially love that parents are very involved in their learning process too as homework is given every week as well as a weekly update to check on their progress. I’m glad that the school hosts events as well such as the mooncake festival carnival. It gets parents to join the fun too!
On top of that, It enables the kids to feel like school is their second home, so as a parent convincing my child to go to school is not an issue as she willingly will do so.
However there is also an improvement to be made in the near future, the location. The location is not very practical for parents because below the kindergarten is a Kopitiam and directly beside the doorway is a stall selling fried goods with the hot boiling oil right there. This poses as a safety risk and hazard when walking the kids to the car.
I hope that there could be a discussion with the kopitiam owner to perhaps cover the oil or switch the stall location.
Overall, I think that sending my child here was the best decision I could’ve made as everything is pretty much top notch and worthy of commending, however I still wish my worries can be resolved.

I like the environment of this school that its clean and neat, and children are being supported to do things independently with the facilities provided and the way the things are being arranged. The toys here are also Montessori based which can help the children develop motor skills and concentration. My kids motor skills had much improvement after learning and repeating activities like pouring, transferring, building towers and many more. The school also provides lots of sensory activities for the younger kids for them to touch and do hands-on exploration which are my kids’ favourite time as they can do messy play and have endless amount of fun with their friends. Another favourite lesson is cooking as every week they will prepare a small meal on their own which my kids always enjoy as it is tastier when you do it yourself.
One thing I always look forward to is the weekly feedback that I get from teachers along with photos/clips of my kids. I’m always happy to see what sort of activities or teachings that are carried out that week and that also helps me to create conversation with my kids. Of course, the timely feedback is also important for me to help my kids in whatever aspect that they may be struggling with and also exchange ideas with teachers on how to help my kids improve. My son who refused to speak Chinese in his previous school, learned to open up to Chinese with the teaching method here and grew to show much interest and improvement that we are confident to send him to a Chinese primary school.
Another thing commendable about the school is that they organise many exciting and fun activities which my kids really enjoy and we as parents were also very engaged and feel that the events are very well planned. Thumbs up for the all efforts of the teachers as they sacrifice a lot of their time to make memories for the kids.
One small thing that I hope the school can improve is to update the events calendar so that we can always look forward and have better planning on the dates of the activities.
