We've been very impressed by the standard of care and attention given to our son by the teachers and principal of Carpe Diem Starlets Sparkle. One thing my wife and I noticed when we first enrolled our son at N1, was that the other children who were reporting to school always had smiles and were happy to go to school. It's been about a year and very rarely do we seeing crying kids not wanting to go to school. The teachers are always energetic and greet the children with a smile every morning. These small gestures make even our day before we head to work.
The school also has a holistic curriculum and we can see the intentionality of the teachers to help nurture the talents of our son, encouraging him in his music intelligence and verbal skills. The teachers are also quick to report any incidents and have time and again made us feel secured as parents that our child was growing in a safe environment.
The principal, Ms. Saida is full of joy and we can really see her passion for kids and her teachers. She is also very patient in handling our queries and detailed in her explanations when it comes to administrative matters.
Thank you Carpe Diem Starlets Sparkle for making learning and development such a fun one for our son.

My child has been with Carpe Diem Starlets Sparkle since 21 months old and he will be turning 5 this year. So far, we are very happy and satisfied with the school. The principal (Ms Saida) is warm and forthcoming and the teachers & staff are also friendly and responsive. The environment and atmosphere of the school is always good and fun. Everyone is kind and treated with respect (including the children) and not forgetting to mention the teacher turnover rate is also low.
The way the school handles Covid and HFMD is also worth commending. We (parents) are always well informed of the situation in school and depending on the severity of the case, they will definitely provide an action plan. Hence, such issue is always under control. The school also manages the parents' expectations pretty well by conducting an annual curriculum tea session via zoom where the principal will share with us the school's agenda for the year and the things we should look out for or if there's any changes on the school rules and regulations .
I know my child is in good hands when he grows to become more and more confident, outspoken and looking forward to go school. With that, I would also like to grab the opportunity to thank all the teachers in Starlets Sparkle Carpe Diem for their dedication and hard work, particularly Ms Yifi and Ms Diana (who have always given their full support and encouragement to our child and at the same time allowing him to develop at his own pace), as well as the Chinese teachers, Chen Lao Shi and Huang Lao Shi, who successfully taught my 100% English speaking child to be able to converse in Chinese.

Kok Hua and Joanne

I am a parent of two and my elder girl graduated from Carpe Diem Starlets Sparkle while my younger girl is still attending pre-school there.
There are many factors that one consider when selecting a pre-school and the usual ones are location, curriculum, school fees and teacher student ratio. However, in my opinion, there are two factors that holds more importance to me than these and cannot be identified until the child joins the school, and that is the teachers' bond with the child and how much the child enjoys school. The latter two are areas where I feel Carpe Diem Starlets Sparkle fare well and the reasons I would recommend this pre-school.
The teachers truly care for children and I see them as guardians as much as educators to my children. When my children face emotional situations in school, the teachers connect with them, lend a listening ear and counsel them. When we feedback that we are worried that our child is unable to catch up in terms of reading ability to transit to primary school, one of the teachers set aside time to give her one to one coaching. When the teachers travel for holidays, they get souvenirs for the children. All of these are above and beyond what they are required to do and really shows the connection and bond between them and the children. Some of the bonds were so strong and the influence transcends beyond teacher to student, the students' relationship grew in tandem as well. In the case of my elder girl, she was upset and moody for almost a whole month when she realized she was going to leave the school for good when she move on to primary school.
The school also plans various celebrations when parents can join the children in school after office hours. It really epitomizes the phrase "It takes a village to raise a child".
The school also takes in parents' feedback and continuously review and improve their curriculum to help the kindergarten children transit more seamlessly into Primary School.
A big thank you to all principal, teachers and staff at Carpe Diem Starlets Sparkle. I hope you continue to guide each batch of starlets to fulfill their potential and become the shooting stars that shine ever so bright.
Yours sincerely,
Allen Ang

Dear Sir/Madam
I would like to provide a review and testimonial of Starlets Sparkle Carpe Diem.
My 2 children, currently in K1 and K2, have been attending the school full-time since they were 18 months old. Our family love the school very much.
1. The teachers genuinely care about my children. The children are given a safe space to be themselves and learn. We can feel the teachers are always looking out for the children and can feel that they genuinely love them.
2. The school imparts good habits and values which are evident in the behavior of my children at home (e.g. keeping their toys after playing, sharing, being polite, being independent) 3. The staff are also prompt in communicating with us whenever we have queries. We have a good relationship with the teachers.
Most importantly, we can tell that our children are happy to go to school and they truly enjoy their time there. Thank you so much for taking good care of them! ❤️
Regards,
Rachel (Mummy of Luke and Kate)

The primary concern for parents when choosing a preschool is undoubtedly the safety of their children. This concern is heightened, particularly in recent times, given the disturbing reports of child abuse in some preschools. Neither my husband nor I have to worry about this aspect as apart from the constant stream of updates from one of the teachers, and the fact that our children genuinely enjoy attending school. Their enthusiasm is a clear indication of the caring and nurturing environment fostered by the teachers, which is further evidenced by how much our child will tell us that they love so-and-so teachers.
Following safety, the next important consideration is the educational aspect, which we have found to be well addressed at Carpe Diem. A notable example is the early introduction of spelling, starting from K1, which has significantly enhanced our child's reading abilities compared to peers from other schools. This is portrayed in her ability to recognize many Chinese characters.
During a school outing to the Singapore Zoological Gardens, I had the opportunity to witness firsthand the teachers' unwavering focus on the children's well-being. One memorable incident occurred during lunch at the Pavilion, where the teachers ensured that every child received their food and even checked in with parents before convening for a briefing to ensure the smooth running of the outing. Some of the teachers were even walking around to check on the kids, instead of sitting down to have a proper meal and rest.
Having experienced another preschool with our eldest child, we can make a direct comparison between these two institutions. In the previous school, all the children were watching Cocomelon during pick-up which I am surprised that the school is increasing exposure of screen-time to the children. Over at Carpe Diem, I observed that the school encourages social interaction among children through activities like arts and crafts, fostering a more engaging and interactive learning environment.
Furthermore, the level of interaction between teachers and students at Carpe Diem is commendable. Despite not having taught my children directly, every teacher seems familiar with each child, providing valuable feedback on their progress. Saida and many teachers would actually made an attempt to stop and say bye to the children, despite their busy schedule, which is a very sweet gesture.
In summary, our decision to enroll our children at Carpe Diem has been validated by numerous positive experiences. From the nurturing environment to the dedication of the teachers, every aspect contributes to a comprehensive and fulfilling educational journey for our children. We are grateful for the opportunity to entrust our children to such caring educators as Ms. Ling, Gao Laoshi, Ms. Diana, and Chuang Laoshi (and many others whom I don't even know them personally but heard of them via my child).

I'd like to write in to commend the amazing work done by the starlets sparkle team. The principal, Ms Saida, is an amazing and grounded leader - always speaking to and assuring parents that their children are taken care of and ensuring that her curriculum is appealing and interesting.
You could see that her teachers feed off her energy and exuberance. Prompt with their work and supervision of the kids as well. Ms Yifi, Chen Lao Shi, Huang Lao Shi and Ms Diana are wonderful teachers.
Keep up with the amazing work in nurturing bright minds for the future!

I wanted to extend my heartfelt thanks to Ms Saida and her team of wonderful teachers/staffs at Carpe Diem @ Bukit Merah. I cannot be happier with the educational experiences my daughter, Gwen has had. She constantly takes us by surprise with the things that she does and says. One moment she is singing chinese songs, the next she is dancing to Vietnamese songs. She show so much care and concerns to everyone around her, making sure everyone is ok. She has blossomed into a bright and sentimental young girl. The teachers provide a very loving, nurturing, safe and respectful environment to the children. The school has far exceeded any expectations that we ever had. My husband and I could not recommend Carpe Diem more highly!

The school has good teachers and principal who cares about the children. They always keep us informed of anything happening in the school. We can always whatapps the principal if we need to check any urgent issue with them. We feel safe to let our children enjoy themselves in the school.
The school has weekly update about what the children are doing in school and we will receive it by end of the week. My elder girl always tell us she misses the time when she was in the pre school.
Keep up the good work!

I have a child in this school. Although it is quite far from our home, my husband and I cannot seem to find another school for our second child. We've been to different preschools to match the standard of Carpe Diem Starlets Sparkle. I have a child in this school.

My husband and I want to salute the staff of CD Starlets Sparkle. From the principal to the teachers to the cook and cleaners too. Wonderful environment for my child who has been in this school since 2021. We definitely are placing our second child this year, because of the assurance towards this school. The principal ensures a smooth flow, is friendly and forthcoming. The teachers ensure lessons are fun, and their love for children is apparent. The cook and cleaner are also the same. I cannot ask for a better preschool for my children. Well done, team Starlets Sparkle. You guys wow us since day one - keep going!

The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, and they go above and beyond to ensure that every child feels welcome and comfortable. The classrooms are bright and spacious, with plenty of toys and learning materials to keep the kids engaged and curious. I love that they offer a well-rounded curriculum that includes everything from reading and writing to art and music. Plus, they have a strong focus on social-emotional development, which is so important for young children. Overall, I highly recommend them to any family looking for a nurturing, stimulating, and fun learning environment for their little ones.
