About Pre-School By-The-Park

Pre-School By-The-Park on Shelford Road occupies one of the most distinctive physical settings of any preschool in the Bukit Timah area: a park-adjacent environment that supports outdoor learning as a genuine daily practice rather than an occasional supplement to indoor instruction. With a 5.0-star Google rating across 13 reviews, it has established a strong reputation among Bukit Timah and Shelford Road families who want a genuinely intimate and nature-adjacent early childhood experience. The boutique scale of the school: enrolment is intentionally limited: means teacher-to-child ratios are among the most favourable in the area, and each child's developmental arc is well-known to every educator in the building. The curriculum at By-The-Park prioritises play-based learning, sensory exploration, and child-led investigation in an environment where the park setting is treated as an extension of the classroom rather than a boundary to it. Children engage with natural materials, seasonal changes, and living systems as part of their everyday learning, building an observational vocabulary and a sense of environmental connection that structured indoor programmes rarely achieve. For families in the Shelford, Buena Vista, and Upper Bukit Timah areas who want a small, unhurried, and nature-engaged preschool experience, Pre-School By-The-Park offers a combination of setting, scale, and educational philosophy that is genuinely rare in Singapore.

Customer Review

"We chose By-The-Park specifically for its outdoor environment and its size, and it has exceeded our expectations on both. Our daughter comes home every day having done something genuinely interesting outdoors: planting, investigating, building: and her teachers clearly know her as an individual. It is the kind of unhurried childhood we wanted for her."
