We are passionate

about the importance of children having a positive experience in kindergarten, as it is a time of rapid learning and development, laying the foundations for all future education. Children develop socially, physically, intellectually, creatively, and emotionally in early childhood. Research demonstrates that children learn best when they feel safe and secure and enjoy their education. At  Ivy, we will provide a positive emotional and physical environment allowing the children to reach their full potential. We offer a stimulating experience based on international best practices, which motivates children to discover more about the world through active learning, developing their imagination, creativity, and problem-solving skills. When they leave us, they are prepared for local, bilingual, or international primary school.

Alison Cook

Education & Quality Director

The Ivy Group was established in 2017 with the opening of New Ivy an international preschool for children from 1-6 years of age. Its vision was to provide high-standard early education for children based on international standards through developmentally appropriate practice and research-based curricula. It aims to create the next generation of talents that lead social progress with a Chinese soul and international vision.

Quality care and learning for every stage

Play Group

The first two years are a golden period of rapid brain development. The early experiences you choose for your child lay the foundational groundwork for their future learning abilities, character, and understanding of the world…

Toddlers

We foster the increasing independence and sociability of toddlers. We continue to support and extend their development with a ‘can do’ approach, building and extending their areas of confidence.

Preschool

The emphasis is correct behaviour for learning and growing independence to solve social and academic issues themselves. Children develop more agency and self-regulation through stimulating enquiry…

Pre-Kindergarten

In Pre-K when the children are ready to focus and listen for longer, they can start the formal teaching of reading and writing. We support their learning through child and adult led enquiry in an enriched environment where they can make choices and practice their new skills…

Kindergarten

In the last year before primary school the expectations are challenging. The emphasis is correct behavior for learning and growing independence to solve social and academic issues themselves…

After-school & Camps

Our ecosystem of learning extends the international journey. The specialist-led After-School Programs reinforces core skills through targeted courses. It flows seamlessly into our immersive School Holiday Camps—thematic, full-day adventures for deep language and cultural exploration…

Our approach to learning
Designed to help children realise their potential

Quality teacher interactions

Research shows that purposeful adult interactions with children creates the best outcomes. A skilled practitioner can recognize the learning outcomes of an activity and supports and extends through sensitive interaction (scaffolding).

Research based

Research shows that a balance of child initiated, and playful adult focused activities provide the best learning outcomes for children.

Learning through play and enquiry

Play is how a child researches the world. Children learn through experiential activities. Play will allow children to practice, embed and make their learning visible.

Neural pathways

Children learn in a holistic way and are not aware of subjects. Making links helps lay down the brain neural pathways. A child may be meeting many learning outcomes from one activity.

Motivated life long learners

A child who is interested to learn, will work at a higher level, and challenge themselves. This is when deep level learning will take place.

Outdoor Learning

More than just physical exercise. Outdoor play allows children to explore new ideas on a larger scale and experience the world around them to make their learning relevant and exciting.

Parent Partnerships

Parents are a child’s first educator. The link with home is vital as children will often display new learning in the home context.

What parent say

As parents of a 5-year-old daughter at Ivy, we are thrilled with the quality of education and care provided. The dedicated teachers create a nurturing and stimulating environment for young learners. The curriculum is academically rigorous and fosters creativity, critical thinking, and social development. Our daughter has shown remarkable progress in cognitive skills, communication abilities, and emotional intelligence. The small class sizes allow for personalised attention, tailored instruction, and individualised support. We appreciate the range of extracurricular activities offered that enrich her learning experience. Ivy feels like a second home where she is supported, challenged, and encouraged to reach her full potential.
