Nursery 2 (N2) Programme in Singapore
By age 4, children are more communicative, observant, and ready to build on earlier experiences. This is the time when scaffolding becomes essential, supporting children as they move from simple imitation to more intentional learning.
Our Nursery 2 programme in Singapore focuses on helping children deepen their understanding of language, numbers, and social concepts through thematic learning and active engagement. Orange Tree Preschool’s N2 curriculum bridges the gap between early exploration and formal learning, giving children the tools they need to thrive in kindergarten.
The Importance of the Nursery 2 Year in Singapore’s Educational Landscape

Pre-Academic Readiness
N2 provides foundational skills in numeracy, language, and problem-solving that are essential for success in K1 and Primary 1.
