History & Background

The Schoolhouse By Busy Bees, formerly known as Pat's Schoolhouse, is a brand with rich heritage, renowned for its excellence in Singapore. Forging ahead with new initiatives while building on our renowned inquiry-embedded play based approach and multiple literacies curriculum, The Schoolhouse By Busy Bees prepares children to be Challengers of the Future.

Expanding on our 35 years of tradition while imparting future ready skills, The Schoolhouse by Busy Bees continues to impact the lives of thousands of young minds from the ages of 2 months to 6 years. We believe in being bold, vivacious and inspiring in everything that we do and we impart that to our children. We want them to be confident and courageous, to celebrate childhood, to think and take on the world one little step at a time.

Education Philosophy

Our Preschool Curriculum adopts an inquiry-embedded play and relationship approach to learning. Having a bilingual core curriculum entails having two language teachers partner each other to facilitate children’s learning in each class. English and Mandarin educators work closely to plan meaningful learning experiences to ensure children get immersed into both languages at the same time and acquire the necessary academic subject knowledge in both languages.

Program Offered

At The Schoolhouse, we focus on preparing children for their future world. With our Bilingual Immersion Core Curriculum, Inquiry-Embedded Play Approach and Relationship-Based Curriculum, our children are empowered to be Bold, Vivacious and Inspiring.
