MK Vision and Mission

To provide a strong start for every child. We seek to do so through providing quality preschool education that is affordable to Singaporeans and catalysing quality improvements in the sector

Our Beliefs

Children are curious learners.

They have an innate sense of curiosity that should be nurtured. They wonder, question, explore and seek to make sense and meaning of their world. By acting on their curiosity, they continue to discover and learn more.

Children are active learners.

They learn by doing. They are also more likely to understand and remember skills and concepts learnt through participation, exploration and experimentation involving real-life objects and experiences

Children are competent learners.

Their thinking and reasoning skills evolve over time as they build new knowledge upon their existing knowledge and experiences. Through constantly thinking and reflecting about their learning, children deepen their understanding of how the world works.
