Tan Family

We’re so happy that we chose EtonHouse Vanda. Our kids love it here! Both our children have shown significant growth in their confidence and social skills since joining EtonHouse Vanda, where the teachers make learning so fun all the time! The children embark on different projects and are encouraged to explore and ask questions on their own, which I trust will be a useful lifelong skill. Parents are frequently involved in meaningful ways such as being invited to their Art exhibitions, festive celebrations, or being part of their weekly show and tell prep etc.

My children LOVE going to school every day, and it speaks volumes about the quality of the entire staff. Every teacher they have encountered are not only well qualified, but exude warmth and friendliness, creating a safe and nurturing space for the children to learn at their own pace. They are always communicative and accountable, allowing us to have peace of mind. It’s also a very close-knit community where parents are connected, and every staff member knows my children by name.

I recommend EtonHouse Vanda to parents who want to see their children are supported and thrive in a joyful environment!

Child’s personal growth – Through the efforts of the teachers and curriculum of EtonHouse Vanda, Emma has increasingly displayed a love for learning for academic subjects and also wider subjects relating to general knowledge, physical education, arts and crafts, music, logic and importantly, social and emotional development. Vanda seems to encourage child-like curiosity in everything that the class does, which is invaluable to the children having a zest for life! It has created conditions where children can succeed or fail gently.

Teacher and the leadership – The teachers are very attentive to the details and needs of each child. Although there are many students within the class, the teachers (throughout each of the pre-school years) are able to provide feedback and raise concerns relating to all aspects that are unique to the child – developmental, food and eating, toilet training and hygiene, health, to say the least. They are very responsive to queries that parents may have.

What makes this pre-school special – I think what makes this preschool special is their focus on relationship building with the child, and with the child’s parents, and also horizontally between parents of the kindergartners, so that the child has a very strong support network at home and in school. The focus on inclusion and community is one that Emma Justin and I have personally enjoyed building at EtonHouse Vanda.

Koh Family

Our first impressions of EtonHouse Vanda from the school tour were that it was a warm, stable and tight-knitted school community. We were initially impressed with the many years that their principal and teachers have stayed on with the same school, and soon understood why – EtonHouse Vanda was a place that prioritised open communication and listening to the needs of their community from the teaching staff to the parents and children. Our older two children enjoy going to school and often tell us about their day in an animated manner at pick-up. Ms Munia and the teachers know the parents and children all by name, and there are a lot of opportunities to get involved with our children’s learning, if we wanted to. There is empathy, and a sincere effort to collaborate in our children’s development. We look forward to our youngest child starting her journey later this year. Since our children transferred to EtonHouse Vanda two years ago, we have felt supported all the way.

Lin Family

As a parent, I couldn’t be happier with our experience at EtonHouse Pre-School at Vanda Road. From day one, I’ve seen my child blossom in ways I never imagined. The teachers, especially Ms. Munia, are absolutely amazing—so caring, patient, and dedicated to building each child‘s confidence. My child, who was initially very quiet at home, now speaks confidently and can even communicate in Chinese!

It’s incredible to see how much he has grown in just one year at EtonHouse Pre-School. What makes the school truly special is the genuine love and attention they give to every child. The curriculum isn’t just about academics—it’s about nurturing the whole child, fostering emotional growth, and encouraging creativity and curiosity. The environment is warm, supportive, and filled with positive energy, which makes learning both fun and exciting.

I feel completely at ease knowing my child is in such a wonderful and enriching environment every day. I am beyond satisfied and wholeheartedly recommend EtonHouse Pre-School to any parent looking for a truly exceptional preschool experience!

Mranata Family

To have Hansel attend EtonHouse Vanda is one of the best decisions we could have made for him. Hansel started timid and afraid of other people and new things coming out from the covid years. Fast forward 1+ year later, he is always talking about what he learnt, what he and his friends did and what exciting thing he ate in school. I’ve seen tremendous improvements in his social skills, curiosity and independent characteristics such as cleaning up after himself, eating and going to sleep independently. 

We are also so grateful for the warm teachers and staff. Ms Munia and Ms Ziezie always go beyond by showing so much care to Hansel (and to the other kids). From their welcoming morning greetings and their cheer and attention throughout the day. 

We are forever grateful for the EtonHouse Vanda community for making it feel like a second home for Hansel. My husband and myself (and Hansel’s protective siblings) feel at ease knowing that he is with the best care.

“The loving teachers and staff, and the intimate size of the school. The whole Vanda team knows all the children and us parents. The children feel loved, safe and a real sense of belonging to Vanda, even after they graduate!”

David, Father of Amelia and Benjamin

“Small, close-knit environment. All of the teachers know Benjamin by name and truly seem to care about him and his education.”

Shi Yan, Mother of Max

“The teachers are awesome, and outdoor space is thoughtfully designed to be safe yet nurturing.”

“Ms Priya is a dedicated teacher who inspires her K1 students to explore and learn. She follows up on her students’ areas of interest with fun exploratory activities. My child, Katie, always comes home sharing animatedly with me the many interesting things she does in school. There was once she taught me how to say ‘Hello’ in different languages. MS Priya is also a very competent teacher who actively partners with parents in the education of our children. Ms Priya taught Katie strategies to speak words using phonics, which helped heighten Katie’s phonemic awareness. In Katie’s own words, she “loves Ms Priya” because she “enjoys listening to her stories and learning new things from her”.

“I have known Wu Laoshi for more than 2 years. Wu Laoshi has the ability to bring positive discipline and manage effective interactions with her students. She helps to keep the children focused and on track so that they can keep up with the many requirements of being part of a team. I have also observed that she is willing to support children based on individual student assessment. She is kind, compassionate and helps with students who are struggling with one-to-one training to keep them from trailing behind. Above all, Ms Wu is wonderful with her children and they adore her. She is an excellent storyteller and captures the children’s attention. Thank you, Wu Laoshi, for bringing so much to the children.”
