School Hunting Just Got Real
Pssst: Honeys on the hunt for international education for the littlies – a little birdie told us there’s an awesome new kid on the block, GEMS World Academy Singapore. Opening its doors on our sunny shores in September 2014, GEMS World Academy (GWA) Singapore is the first school in South East Asia to be part of the massive GEMS worldwide network.
Under the GEMS network, your cosmopolitan cutie gets to unlock an instant connection with peers across the globe (from more than 150 nationalities!) in other GEMS international schools around the world – practically a must in our extremely interconnected society. Talk about a small world!
Not only does enrolment at GEMS give your bookworm a great deal of social capital (increasingly valuable anywhere you are today), as a candidate school for the International Baccalaureate program, GWA Singapore promises academic excellence with rigorous socio-academic curricula. Faculty members, coupled with crackin’ curriculum, are also dedicated to preparing their students for life (the motto is actually Ad Vitam Paramus but let’s just stick to preparing for life).
GEMS ups the awesomeness ante by providing mind-boggling experiences for Citizen GEMS – bringing in all stars like Kobe Bryant and real-life NASA astronauts to teach lessons, providing students with opportunities to participate in relief projects in Africa, and working with UNESCO via the Varkey GEMS Foundation(headed by none other than Bill Clinton). Munchkins study world languages from an early age, join global initiatives, and participate in specially designed extracurricular activities and sports programmes. These and more allow GWA Singapore to become all parents’ best mates in the cultivation of important morals and values like independence, responsibility, honesty, equality, and respect. Parents can also expect development of the littlies’ talents, skills, leadership, and entrepreneurship skills.
Let’s wax ecstatic about the campus: we’re talking world-class facilities. Their ginormous five-hectare, $200 million investment has an infrastructure enhanced with the best educational technology on the planet (rocket men need a place to come down to earth, remember?) GWA Singapore also houses a state-of-the-art, 750-seat auditorium and an out-of-this-world planetarium for aspiring Aristotles to space out responsibly.

Enrollment for the academic year of 2014/2015 has commenced for Pre-Kindergarten to Grade 5. So if you want to learn more about this awesome new school come and meet Founder Dan E. Young himself, and rub elbows with the network that brings GEMS to life.
