Smart Berriis, founded by leaders in early childhood education, is dedicated to fostering good character and a love for learning in children. Using the SMART teaching methods, we promote independent thought and provide a tailored curriculum for each child's needs. We aim to instill confidence and a growth mindset, offering programs from Pre-Nursery to Kindergarten 2. Our well-curated classrooms and facilities encourage curiosity and self-directed learning, aligning with the Ministry of Education's guidelines for a smooth transition to primary education. We keep fees affordable to ensure all parents have access to high-quality preschool education.

Our thematic based curriculum is curated to be rich in Character Building & Social-Emotional Development. We ensure that our SMARTBerrians are not only primary ready but they BE Responsible, Respectable, Independent, Inquisitive & Sincere.
Our learning motto "Making Activities Learning Alive" aims to stimulate and sustain children’s natural curiosity by introducing them to a hands on learning approach.
Our Curriculum is infused with a Montessori component where self directed activities is encouraged. This allows them to work at their own pace without judgement or corrective actions.
To enhance the learning experience, we implement SARA (Set Up Activity & Resource Areas) within our classrooms. These thoughtfully arranged spaces provide children with access to a variety of educational materials and activities, promoting hands-on learning and independent exploration. By setting up these activity and resource areas, we support diverse learning styles and create an engaging and stimulating environment for all our students.
Our classroom experience is enhanced by technology. Our I-Learning system allows students to integrate their daily learning experiences with an online learning platform. Our schools are installed with devices which give the teachers and children access to interactive learning programmes to aid in their daily learning.
We utilize the Letterland Phonics program to enhance early literacy skills in a fun and engaging way. This program uses imaginative stories and characters to teach phonics, making it easier for children to understand and remember letter sounds and shapes. This helps children develop strong reading and writing foundations, ensuring they are well-prepared for future learning.
We prioritize motor skill development in early childhood education through a balanced approach to fine and gross motor activities. Fine motor skills are honed through tasks like painting and using small objects, while gross motor skills are developed through outdoor play and physical activities.
We incorporate Music & Movement into our curriculum to enhance children's physical, emotional, and cognitive development. This program includes activities such as singing, dancing, and playing musical instruments, which help children develop rhythm, coordination, and expressive skills
We place a strong emphasis on character building through our "Value of the Month" program. Each month, we focus on a specific core value such as kindness, respect, or perseverance. Through various activities, stories, and discussions, we help children understand and embody these values in their daily lives. We aim to instill positive traits and behaviors that contribute to personal growth, social harmony, and success in the classroom and beyond.
