Welcome to Southside Campus

In the Reggio Emilia approach, the learning environment is considered to be the third teacher. At Mulberry House, we have worked closely with early childhood education experts, architects and designers to ensure that our learning space in the Southside Campus provides every opportunity for children to imagine, discover, take risks, be curious, construct, ask questions, and explore their senses. Children enrolled in playgroups and kindergarten classes are promised to thrive in these learning environments that are carefully laid out to suit their interests and developmental stages.

Located in a tranquil setting by the Aberdeen harbour and designed with young children’s needs in mind, the Mulberry House International Kindergarten’s new Southside campus is a paradise of education. Equipped with brightly-lit classrooms which open onto spacious indoor areas with a bilingual library and safe playground, the Southside campus is a beautifully-designed space that encourages growth and empowers education. Playgroup and kindergarten students can make use of the inviting spaces for children to explore and discover. Playing in a safe and innovative environment, also promotes developmental benefits that are critical for the successful growth of a child’s brain and body.

Our beautiful 10,000 sqft campus has top-notch learning facilities to nurture and encourage children’s development, including

  • Music Room
  • Art Room & Sensory Area/Baby Gym

Southside Pre-Nursery Programme

Our Pre nursery programme in partnership with our parent community will support the children in their first steps of separation and independence. Giving them the tools to be confident communicators, resilient and creative problem solvers of the future.

Kindergarten Programme

Our Kindergarten programme is designed to inspire children’s thinking and stimulate their brain development through a wide range of music, stories, movement, arts, language, physical, and sensory activities. Our passionate Early Years educators provide creative learning environments that will give children the tools and knowledge to become literate and confident leaders of tomorrow. 

By interacting with our English and Chinese teachers and participating in daily activities in an interactive learning environment, our children can develop their skills, express their emotions, and establish close relationships with others. This bilingual co-class teaching approach allows students to inquire about the world in both languages, and builds strong bilingual and bi-literacy abilities.
