Rather talk to someone?
Picture a pristine neighbourhood framed by tropical trees, well away from traffic. That is where you’ll find us: a small cottage on Lynwood Grove in the Braddell Heights estate.
Established in 1990, Braddell Heights was one of the first play-based schools in Singapore, and more than 900 local families have been through it since. The morning walk in is a calm one — birdsong, rustling leaves, and neighbours saying hello on their way to the garden.
What sets the campus apart is the field. It gives us room for sport, gardening, mud play and water play, and the long driveway doubles as a tricycle track and a messy-play zone. Messy Play runs on Thursdays and Little League sports on Fridays — both are firm favourites.
If you’re lucky you’ll spot hornbills on the branches, squirrels on the fence and the occasional inquisitive parakeet.




We were looking for a play-based school with a friendly atmosphere, and when we checked out Shaws at Braddell we noticed straight away how happy the children seemed.
After joining Shaws I noticed a positive change in my daughter’s confidence and her willingness to open up and socialise with other kids.
The compound is a house with an inviting garden and space to run in the fresh air. The staff are friendly, nurturing and genuinely invested in my children.
Monthly fees vary by campus and programme (Full Day, Half Day or Extended Day), so we send you the current figures for the campus you’re interested in. Enrolment itself is a $500 non-refundable booking fee, one month’s deposit (refunded on withdrawal) and one month’s fees in advance.
From 18 months to six years, Pre-Nursery through to Kindergarten 2, with no handover gap between years.
Campuses are open 7am to 7pm, Monday to Friday, all year round apart from public holidays and a few staff training days. The core programme runs 8:30am to 5:30pm.
Yes. Children pick up English and Mandarin through play, stories, songs and everyday routines, woven through the day rather than taught as a separate drill.
Everything is cooked in our own kitchen: no pork, no beef, no processed food and 100% whole-grain rice. Vegetarian and no-salt options are available, and we check allergies with every family before a child starts.
