About My First Skool

For more than 40 years, My First Skool has been a leader in early childhood care and education. As the pre-school arm of NTUC (National Trades Union Congress) First Campus Co-operative, we have grown into one of Singapore's most respected early childhood organisations since we opened our doors in 1977.

Children are, and always have been, at the heart of all we do.

A quality pre-school education ignites a young child’s love for learning. It builds an all-compassing foundation for a child’s intellectual, emotional, physical and character development.

The invented 'Skool' in our name reflects our belief that absolute correctness, mechanics and memorisation should not be the focus when teaching preschoolers to write. As children learn to write, they commonly use what they know about letters, sounds & spelling patterns to invent spellings for words. Studies show invented spelling actually helps children understand the relationships between speech sounds and alphabets.

We encourage our children not to be fearful of making mistakes and we believe our children are able to grow into confident and creative individuals who are ready to take on the world!

We look forward to greater learning and growth together as you and your child join us on the My First Skool learning journey.
