Eid-Ul-Fitr

It was a day of fun as our children immersed themselves in our Muslim friends' culture and traditions. They learnt about the diversity of costumes, cuisines and how Eid is celebrated in various countries.






The highlight of their day was partaking in yummy Nasi Lemak with their hands. Some found it really challenging at the start but everybody had a ball of a time and a very satisfied meal!








Selamat Hari Raya!

A Tribute To Our Teachers...

Dear Ms Anisah and Tan Lao Shi,
Today, we were lucky enough to see Caelyn's teachers careening down a snowy slope on black, rubber tires! We are lucky to have such lovely teachers who have such a wonderful sense of fun! Thank you for taking such good care of Caelyn in the class and for all your hard work, patience and love! Happy Teacher's Day!
- Jacyln, Douglas & Caelyn Scott





To the amazing teachers at Lumiere Montessori

Thank you for your commitment and dedication to our son and all of the students at the school. Our son's impressive development at school is attributable to great teaching in a loving environment with a team of really, really lovely women. We are thrilled with all that Marcus experiences in school. We love the way that he embraces his learning and the way that he embraces all of you and his fellow students. It is important that he learn his ABC's and 1-2-3's, though it is more important that he learn to interact socially with respect and love. The hours he spends daily at school, with all of you, is setting him up in a great 'classroom' for this.

Congratulations on caring so deeply for the roles you play in so many lives - that of all of the students and their families, friends and all who are involved with them.



Well done to all of you and Happy Teachers Day!
- Trudi and Craig Bannister

Thank you, Lumiere teachers, for your love and patience. I know Eileen sets a very high standard for staff recruitment, so each and every one of you are the BEST OF THE BEST. As a parent I can rest easy knowing that my child is in such good hands.

Dear Teachers, Some days I'm cranky, but mostly I'm good. Mischievous maybe, and I guess you know that too.What I really want to say is, thank you for being patient with me while allowing my little personality to shine through. Thanks also for imparting to me things I would remember even when I'm grown. Happy Teachers' Day!
- Love, Isaac



Dear Eileen, I would like to take this chance to thank you for being such a fantastic teacher! I know it's not easy to teach a bunch of kids.
