Discovering Community at the Wet Market
At Little Olive Tree Ghim Moh , meaningful learning often happens beyond classroom walls. It happens in real places, with real people, and real experiences. This Chinese New Year season, our Pre-Nursery and Playgroup children, together with their parents and teachers, took a walk through the Ghim Moh wet market. An everyday space used by the young and old became a rich learning environment filled with colour, sounds, and stories waiting to be discovered. As teachers guid


Learning Through Wonder: A Community Garden Visit with Our Nursery Children
At Little Olive Tree, we believe that young children learn best through wonder, discovery, and meaningful experiences . Today, our Nursery children from Little Olive Tree P51 went on a garden visit that turned simple fruits into powerful learning moments. As they explored the garden, the children used their senses to see, touch, and smell calamansi and lime, learning to tell the difference between the two. They also observed ripe and unripe bananas, noticing how colour revea

“Babies don’t need lessons. They just sleep, eat, and poo. Really?”
We hear this often and on the surface, it sounds reasonable. After all, infants cannot talk, read, or follow instructions. Their days seem simple and repetitive. So why would they need a curriculum?

Abide and Abound: A New Year Reflection at the Little Olive Tree Commencement Service
As we begin a new year, we are reminded of Jesus’ words about the vine and the branches. When we abide in Him, and He abides in us, we will bear much fruit. This is not only a spiritual idea for worship, but a deeply practical way of life that shapes how we learn, work, and grow together as a school community. Abiding does not mean stepping back, and abounding does not mean excess. It is about life flowing—quietly, steadily, and faithfully—into real fruit. In a school, that


Last day of the year. What truly matters?
It’s the last day of the year. Some are making plans. Some are feeling the pull of the year ahead. Some are thinking a lot. Some don’t quite know what to think. And that’s normal. For parents, the year has been full in very ordinary ways. For our partners and friends, it has been a year of walking alongside. So before the calendar turns, it helps to pause and ask: What truly mattered? At Little Olive Tree, we often return to a simple picture—a tree. This year, wha
