HOUSE ON THE HILL @ BALMORAL

Founded in 2012, House on the Hill is a family-run school. We are a house of curated learning, a genuine Montessori. We believe in immersing the child in an open and stimulating environment with a curriculum of experiential learning. Thoughtful consideration is put into the entire House on the Hill experience, from lush green surroundings to the daily learning curriculum. This allows each child to develop life-long skills for their futures successes, at their own pace.

There are four House on the Hill campuses - Mount Sophia, Balmoral Crescent, Pasir Panjang and Hollandse Club.

We stay true to the values and education excellence of the Montessori method. Our specially- trained Montessori educators help to ensure our curriculum instils strong language and mathematical skills, preparing each child for their next step in either local or international schools.

House on the Hill is one of a few Montessori pre-schools in Singapore with individualised curriculum, vertical – learning, and 3-hour work cycle classes. To build critical thinking skills and creative independence, we create and weave in experiences that help with fostering a lifelong love of learning. Children at House on the Hill are imbued with a lasting sense of positivity to seize every moment of life.

The curriculum covers the five key Montessori areas of learning: Practical Life, Sensorial, Language, Mathematics and Culture. Our bespoke Mandarin program focuses on engagement, culture and communication. Through intensely interactive classes and passionate teachers, the children develop a joy of learning Mandarin, and experience the language through songs, dances, games, stories, and crafts.

We offer a wide variety of enrichment programmes such as
- Afternoon Mandarin Programme 天天向上华文
- Japanese Language Programme
- Sportball

The 天天向上华文 Afternoon Mandarin Programme aims to nurture and cultivate the children’s love for the Chinese language in a conducive, interactive, and immersive learning environment, with a focus on listening 听, speaking说, reading读, writing 写 through lots of engaging games and activities. This immersive learning environment will definitely see the children’s confidence grow in using and practicing their Mandarin!

Our holistic Mandarin curriculum encompasses lessons in multiple formats, including small group and individual lessons, using techniques such as singing songs, storytelling, game playing – just to name a few! Through these methods, we are confident that the children will deepen their understanding of the language and culture, and have a strong foundation for continuing their Mandarin studies in primary school.

Our Japanese classes are conducted once a week and are only open to Japanese native speakers. Takako Sensei has been running our classes since 2016 and hopes to instil the love of the Japanese language through songs, crafts, and activities.
