Holidays and Holiday Programme
Every year the school follows the Singapore School Year Calendar and designated holidays. At the end of each term we provide a school Holiday Programme. Usually this is for one week in March and September and approximately four weeks in June and November / December. There is no additional charge should you wish to send your child for the holiday programme.
During December the school usually undergoes heavy renovation for approximately 2 weeks. This can vary slightly but most usually runs from mid December through to the beginning of the New Year. The office remains open during this time; except for public holidays.
Glimpses
Parent Testimonial
Nathan and Julia, Parents of Lachlan, Arlo and Isaac, Newton
We have been delighted with EtonHouse Pre-school Newton, the inquiry-based curriculum, the caring teachers and the half-day Mandarin program that have been positive influences on our son. It was important to me as a parent that pre-school should be a place where a child can be confident to explore and inquire at leisure so that a love for learning can develop naturally. Read more here
Neil and Tulika Narale, Parents of Saanjh and Saaya, Newton
As parents, we love that our children love waking up and going to school to see their teachers and friends. Along with the love and nurturing that the teachers and staff provide, EtonHouse has encouraged their curiosity for life and learning, imagination, self-esteem, social and physical abilities.

Takehiro and Mana, Parents of Senna, Noah and Hanna, Newton
We picked EtonHouse Newton as it was one of a few international pre-schools that offered Japanese class daily. Besides the high quality of education, we like the diversity of students and stability of teachers and staff there. Keep up the great work there. Read more here
