traditional preparatory curriculum, where children are exposed only to purposeful work.
Amazing Star Montessori House builds the foundation for lifelong learning in an enriched
environment where children can thrive. Besides preparing each child academically, they are also
prepared to be self-confident, independent and responsible. Multimedia-integrated lessons are
specifically developed to a child’s natural curiosity and interests, and present skills and concepts
like literacy, numeracy, music and art in engaging and interactive ways. To enhance their general
knowledge, each term is supplemented with an interesting theme like fruits, transportation or
the underwater world. These themes are integrated into hands-on, interactive lessons and
activities, all of which culminate into an outdoor excursion to a related destination at the end
of the term.

Best In Nurturing Multiple Intelligences
Preschool for Multiple Intelligences
Preschool for Multiple Intelligences is a premium bilingual international preschool for children
between 18 months to six years, where learning is experiential, meaningful and applicable in real life.
PMI gently nurtures children’s innate multiple intelligences to lay the foundation in developing their
potential. When the eight intelligences – logical-mathematical, linguistic, spatial, musical,
interpersonal, intrapersonal, bodily kinesthetic, and naturalistic – are nurtured, the child blossoms
into an individual that is more creative, confident, daring to explore new things, and curious about
their surroundings. At PMI, they identify each child’s strength and help him or her develop it deeper
while at the same time raise his or her level of functioning across all other intelligences. Through
PMI’s multi-faceted curriculum, parents may observe our children engaged in: Breeding frogs from
tadpoles and documenting with words and drawings; creating imaginatively from blocks and
recycled material; making art with paint, crayons, pebbles, sand, ribbons, straws, flowers and
leaves; dramatising, singing, dancing, making music or going on a field trip to the mangroves to study
the mudskippers. Intelligence is neutral and can be used with good or bad intent. With PMI’s values
of love and compassion, independence and initiative, responsibility, respect and honesty children
learn good values to guide good behaviour.
