Virtues
To live the virtues of faith, hope and love, acting with prudence, temperance, fortitude and justice.
The LSS experience
More than a school.
More than a school.
A place to become.
Little Shepherds’ Schoolhouse is a space dedicated to nurturing faith and character development — where children grow academically while becoming compassionate, globally-minded individuals.
Vision & mission
Every child a joyful learner, flourishing in God’s love.
We nurture each child to learn with joy, grow in virtue and God’s love, and be faithful stewards of our world.
None of that is an abstraction. It shows up in how a three-year-old greets a friend, in the way a class tends its garden, and in the gratitude assembly that opens every morning. We believe children learn virtue the same way they learn language — by living inside it.
Our core values
Virtues. Integrity. Respect. Teamwork & Unity. Excellence. Stewardship.
Six values, held together by one word: VIRTUES.
Integrity
To be honest and truthful, and to do what is right even when no one is watching.
Respect
To show positive regard for all creation, accepting others as they are.
Teamwork & Unity
To work together as one community, with kindness — listening to one another and sharing the load.
Excellence
To give our best in all that we do, and to keep learning and growing for the children in our care.
Stewardship
To care for God’s creation and to use what we are given wisely and generously.
Each value is named, modelled and practised daily — so children learn to recognise it in themselves and in one another. Beacons of Light
Our heritage
A new name. Generations of history.
While the name Little Shepherds’ Schoolhouse is relatively new, our individual centres have operated for many years — with generations of our young having passed through their portals.
The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Singapore has been extensively involved in the provision of education in Singapore, and our centres are part of that long tradition: neighbourhood preschools affiliated with parish communities, known and trusted by the families around them.
- More than 45 years of Catholic preschool education
- Six centres across the north, east, central and west
- Five SPARK-certified centres and four Partner Operator Scheme centres
What sets us apart
Four commitments we keep.
Beacons of Light
Our faith and character formation programme — faith, virtues and values woven naturally into everyday learning rather than taught as a separate subject.
Sustainable education & learning
Children develop resilience, creativity and responsibility by connecting local and global contexts.
Close community engagement
Each centre is affiliated with a parish community — families, neighbours and volunteers are part of daily life.
A trusted preschool
45+ years of Catholic preschool education, with a charity board accountable to the families we serve.
Governance
Run as a charity, accountable to families.
Little Shepherds’ Schoolhouse is operated by Catholic Preschool Education (Singapore) Ltd (CPES), a faith-based non-profit entity of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Singapore. CPES is a company limited by guarantee and a registered charity under the Charities Act, operating six preschools under the Little Shepherds’ Schoolhouse brand.
