In Brief
Holland International School is a niche preschool and primary school serving children aged 18 months to 12 years with distinctive Dutch and English language streams based on International Primary Curriculum principles. With annual fees around SGD 25,270 and small class sizes in Bukit Timah's green surroundings, it offers a play-based learning environment drawing from over 100 years of educational experience.
Located at 65 Bukit Tinggi Road in the leafy Bukit Timah area, Holland International School occupies a natural environment designed to support play-based learning for young children. The school operates dual language streams allowing families to choose English or Dutch as the primary language of instruction, with Mandarin or French available as second languages. This bilingual approach reflects the school's heritage and serves both expatriate Dutch families and international families seeking multilingual early childhood education.
The curriculum draws inspiration from the International Primary Curriculum framework while integrating play as a core educational element throughout preschool and primary levels. Small class sizes enable personalized and differentiated learning approaches, with co-curricular activities complementing the academic program. The school's focus on critical thinking, cooperative learning, and character development aims to prepare students for transition to secondary education at other Singapore institutions.
