The campus

Small enough that everyone knows everyone

Tanjong Katong opened in 2009 in a quiet corner of the Boscombe Road estate. The surroundings are calm — which turns out to suit creativity and imagination rather well.

It is our most intimate campus, and parents consistently mention the same thing: because it is small, families get to know most of the teachers and most of the other children. The community that builds up around it is a genuine one.

A team of fourteen educators runs the full ShawsPlay curriculum here, with the same hands-on, outdoor, bilingual approach as every other Shaws school.

The small size of the Katong campus made it feel intimate. We really like the sense of community that’s been built here.

Before you ask

What parents usually want to know

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.
