“The joy on teachers’ faces, their patience and passion, their calm through chaos, and the way their energy shapes confident, happy children.”
— Marco Wong, parent of Declan
“Lives are in the making here, hearts are in the waking here.” What began as a nostalgic school song from Marco’s childhood became the heartbeat of this heartfelt parent testimonial at our Cambridge @ Serangoon Gardens Pre-school Graduation.
In this warm and candid speech, Marco, father to Declan and alumna Isabella, shared what truly matters when choosing a pre-school: not the fancy facilities, not the gadgets or the glossy brochures but the people. The teachers. The environment where children spend their waking hours.
He reflected on years of school tours and comparisons, and why Cambridge Pre-school ultimately stood out: the joy on teachers’ faces, their patience and passion, their calm through chaos, and the way their energy shapes confident, happy children. Marco paid tribute to the teachers who made all the difference — Teacher Jollyne, Wang Laoshi, Principal Val, and to the leadership team whose positive spirit creates a village that lifts every child.
“And Cambridge Pre-school, I’m pleased to say, ticks that one big box we were looking for, the teachers. God knows it’s not the school fees. The teachers are always working with a smile on their faces in spite of the many difficult circumstances, I’m sure.”
Thank you to all our teachers, parents and children for being part of our Cambridge Pre-school family.
