Why we're called Pebbles

We believe that every child deserves a nurturing space to grow -- not just academically, but emotionally, socially, and personally. Our centre is founded by a diverse team of passionate individuals: a former MOE educator, a trained counsellor, and experienced professionals from the business and big tech sectors. Together, we bring a rich blend of expertise and heart to everything we do.

We envisioned a place where children can spend their after-school hours meaningfully, whether they are introspective thinkers or socially engaged learners. We aim to design learning experiences that support both quiet reflection and vibrant interaction, helping each child discover their own rhythm and voice.

Beyond academic support, we are committed to equipping children with the life skills and mindset needed to thrive in the real world. From emotional resilience to creative problem-solving, our programmes are thoughtfully crafted to nurture well-rounded individuals.

Our Core Values

Three pillars guide everything we do -- from the activities we design to the relationships we build with every family.

Relationships First

Every child deserves to feel seen, heard, and valued. We place relationships at the heart of everything we do, creating a safe and nurturing environment where children feel confident to express themselves and grow.

Confidence Through Mastery

Confidence is built through competence. We intentionally design learning experiences that allow children to practise, improve, and achieve mastery, empowering them to take pride in their progress.

A Community of Belonging

Children thrive when they feel they belong. We cultivate a warm, inclusive community where every child feels connected, supported, and respected.

Purposeful Learning

Every child is unique, with their own strengths and areas for growth. We meet learners where they are, guiding them towards meaningful goals and helping them develop a sense of purpose in their learning journey.

Our Approach

A thoughtful, structured environment designed to help every child thrive after school.

MOE-Aligned Curriculum Support

Homework guidance and academic reinforcement aligned with Singapore's national curriculum.

Bilingual Environment

English and Mandarin integrated naturally through daily activities, conversation, and learning materials.

Social-Emotional Learning

Building resilience, empathy, and confidence through guided interactions and real-world problem solving.

Wholesome Meals for Happy, Growing Children

Fresh, nutritious meals prepared daily using fresh ingredients. We place emphasis on balanced, wholesome nutrition so that every child is well-fed with healthy and satisfying meals.

Inside the Centre

Our space at 144 Upper Bukit Timah is purpose-built for after-school learning — focused classrooms, a maker library, a daily-meal kitchen, and a values wall that sets the tone the moment you walk in.

The Pebbles values wall — 'In this space you are seen, heard and valued. With focus and effort, I grow every day. Care. Respect. Kind Words.'

Our Values, On the Wall
