Looking for a nursery in Jurong West for your 3-4 year old? At MapleBear Jurong West, our bilingual nursery school helps children build confidence, early literacy, and social skills through play-based learning in English and Mandarin. Part of our full Canadian curriculum pathway — from toddler to K2. For younger children, explore our playgroup for 2-3 year olds. For older children, learn about our full-day childcare programme.
Play-Based Learning with Purpose — The Canadian Way
Our nursery children begin structured phonics in English, learning letter sounds, blending, and early reading skills. In Mandarin, they are introduced to pinyin, tones, and basic characters through songs, stories, and interactive activities.
The Canadian approach emphasises child-centered, inquiry-based learning — children explore at their own pace while educators scaffold and extend their understanding naturally.
At 3-4 years old, children are rapidly developing social awareness. Our nursery programme focuses on sharing, turn-taking, empathy, conflict resolution, and self-regulation — the foundational skills that make children confident learners.
Structure, Variety, and Joy Every Day
Warm welcome, settling in, and self-directed exploration in learning corners.
Structured English phonics and Mandarin language sessions through stories and songs.
Active outdoor time — gross motor skills, nature exploration, and physical games.
Fresh, nutritious meals from our in-house kitchen followed by quiet rest time.
Painting, crafting, singing, and rhythm activities that develop fine motor skills and creativity.
Hands-on science and math exploration through play, experiments, and guided discovery.
