OUR PHILOSOPHY
We believe that children must be given opportunities to learn and grow in a conducive environment, filled with love, care and attention. The children are active participants in developmentally appropriate planned activities, have ample hands-on experiences, engage in purposeful play, and enjoy a strong home-school partnership. We want to develop lifelong learners, where the children have a positive attitude towards school and future learning.
ZION BISHAN BIBLE-PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH 2012
History
Zion Bishan Kindercare (ZBK), formerly known as Zion Bishan Kindergarten, has opened its doors to young children from as early as 1995, operating out of the church premises of Zion Bishan Bible-Presbyterian Church. ZBK is one of the home missions of the church. ZBK has been serving young families who reside in Bishan and its neighbouring towns – Toa Payoh, Ang Mo Kio and beyond.
In March 2015, ZBK moved back into the newly renovated church premises where it occupies the 2nd floor of the church building with fully air-conditioned classrooms and its own indoor playground.
The vision of the school has remained steadfast over the years: to nurture every ZBK child to grow in wisdom, stature and in favour with God and man.
Through the years, the preschool has seen God’s hand at work, both in the lives of the children, parents and its staff. We continue to look to God for many more fruitful years to come, all glory and praise be unto God!
Message from our Principal,
Mrs Serene Chang
Established since 1995, Zion Bishan Kindercare (ZBK), formerly known as Zion Bishan Kindergarten, is a place where we envision to nurture every child to grow in wisdom, stature and in favour with God and man. We believe that every child is unique, special and a gift from God. Our mission is to develop in each child a zest for life and learning, and a love for God, others and self in our nurturing and loving environment.
At ZBK, we aim to provide high-quality programme to meet the needs of each child by fostering his/her overall development in terms of his/her spiritual, physical, intellectual, social growth and personal self-esteem. We believe that this can be accomplished through purposeful play, hands-on experiences, developmentally appropriate teaching strategies and an active home-school partnership.
Together with a team of dedicated and nurturing teachers, we offer a rich and holistic curriculum which also reflects the Christian values based on God and the Bible. At ZBK, we adopt a thematic and integrated approach to learning to support the holistic development of the children. Our curriculum and programmes are based on the six learning areas outlined under MOE’s “Nurturing Early Learners” (NEL) Framework, i.e. Aesthetics & Creative Expression; Discovery of the World; Language & Literacy; Motor Skills Development; Numeracy; Social & Emotional Development.
We want to develop lifelong learners, where the children have a positive attitude towards learning. We will continue to make every child’s learning journey with us a meaningful and memorable one and help them blossom and grow as confident individuals reaching their full potential.
