On 3 June, the PYP Grade 3 students put on an energetic and interactive production of a classic children's tale, Three Little Pigs 🐷🐷🐷, for their schoolmates and teachers during their morning assembly.
As the Big Bad Wolf 🐺 [or rather, the student playing him] huffed and puffed and blew the houses down to the good-natured cheers of the audience, these junior thespians brought into the story a twist of classic OWIS kindness - they invited the wolf in to be with them!
While the assembly was a joy to watch, it was heartwarming to see the students internalise and showcase their understanding of a key OWIS goal - to develop students who not just think critically but also with careful curiosity and empathy.
A wonderful demonstration of how perspectives and stories can change simply by blending analysis with kindness - an OWIS specialty!

Convenient Access for Families with Young Children
Designed for Young Learners
Our modern campus features thoughtfully designed spaces that are student-centric, engaging, and ideal for holistic development — nurturing the academic, emotional and social needs of young learners.
With a balance between academics, outdoor activities, digital learning, and art and music in their daily routines, these little explorers can explore and experiment with the world around them.
A Proven Education Approach
Just like our OWIS Nanyang and OWIS Punggol campuses, OWIS Newton follows an inquiry-led approach that encourages curiosity and critical thinking. Students build essential skills like collaboration, creativity, and communication from an early age in our preschool and primary school classes.
Additionally, we believe that holistic development in early childhood is crucial to nurture well-rounded individuals, which is why we expose students to different disciplines beyond academics, such as music and physical education.
Educators Who Care
Our passionate and experienced teachers are committed to bringing out the best in every child, providing personalised attention and fostering a supportive, inclusive classroom environment.
Additionally, they model our school values of kindness, empathy, and compassion, allowing our students to absorb these qualities by example.
Japanese, Chinese and French as Second Language Options
Students at OWIS Newton have the opportunity to choose from Japanese, Chinese, or French as their second language. This will nurture multilingualism and global awareness from an early age.
