Between Two Trees

Book Endorsements

“This is a fascinating and accessible account of a preschool in Singapore, by its two founders, providing a vivid example of creating a local cultural project of education with a very distinctive pedagogical identity. The book shows, with many examples and illustrations, the construction of that project and the evolution of that identity, in relationship with Reggio Emilia and other pedagogical influences, and shaped by the multi-cultural context of the preschool’s home city. This book provides much rich food for thought.” – An endorsement by Peter Moss, Emeritus Professor, University College London, Institute of Education

Between Two Trees is one of the truly original Singapore brands that I respect very much. I find that the values-driven school that these 2 wonderful women have created is visionary and relevant. Their spaces ground the children in nostalgia and a love for our community. I have found myself feeling excited by my own child’s growing curiosity, and touched by how much the teaching team honours each piece of work the children create. Few schools balance an emphasis on roots and yet develop a preparation for the future as well as this school does. Such an integrity and love for their work. Read this from cover to cover; it will encourage you greatly.”
