PIPS (KLN) Under 2's Programme
PIPS (KLN) Under 2's Programme was founded in 2007 based on the following principle:

“We respect the child’s curiosity and love of discovery. Therefore, at PIPS we believe in providing a caring, stimulating, stress-free and safe environment that encourages children of all nationalities to achieve their full potential.”

PIPS is committed to developing a holistic approach to stimulate inquiring, independent, knowledgeable and creative thinkers, with a life-long love of learning.

Children between 1 and 2 years old are eligible to enroll in the Under 2's Programme. As in all Under 2's Programme situations, an adult will need to accompany each child to the class.

There are up to 12 students in each class. Our Under 2's Programme offers a child-centred environment, designed to encourage children to learn independently through a wide range of activities, such as arts and crafts, music, outdoor play, creative play and story time. A Putonghua and Music teacher also lead circle times during the week for the 2 hours programme.


To enhance the Under 2's Programme experience for children, we operate the programme on a monthly basis and accept applications in the middle of the term. For the schedule, tuition fees and course timetable, please refer to the information below.

Time Sessions and Tuition Fees
We offer 1 ½ hours programme for children form 12 months to 18 months and 2 hours programme for children from 18 months to 24 months, morning or afternoon sessions.

You may choose to enroll your child for one of the following programmes:

Transfer to Pre-Nursery:
  • Children may enter the Pre-Nursery as and when they become 2 years old, if there is a place available, and if you have completed an application form for the Pre-Nursery. The last month for children to move from Under 2's Programme to Pre-Nursery is April.
  • If a child’s birthday falls in the middle of the month of entry into the Pre-Nursery (e.g. 9th February), they will not be able to start in the Pre-Nursery until their actual birthday. This is an EDB regulation. A child starting mid-month in the Pre-Nursery will not be able to stay in the Under 2's Programme until their birthday unless Under 2's Programme and Pre-Nursery fees are both paid for that month.
  • Please note that children who turn 2 after 31st December and then go to the Pre-Nursery will have to repeat the Pre-Nursery year, again an EDB requirement.
