Eunice Tong is the Principal at The Little Skool-House At-Thomson, which is one of the branches of The Little Skool-House International.

How did you become an early childhood teacher?

My early childhood career with The Little Skool-House International (On-The-Green) began its journey since June 2005. I was the English Teacher to about 65 Kindergarten students.

It wasn’t just about planning lessons and conducting activities, but also nurturing the little ones as unique individuals and fulfilling the potential of each child.


What do you enjoy about your job?

I love my job as an early childhood educator because of the experiences and the sense of achievement I get when I make a positive difference in the lives of others. Being people-oriented helps in what I do, as it is also about building good relationships.

I’m glad that I have played a significant role in the learning processes and lives of my students, and I enjoy the beautiful friendships that I have with my colleagues and the parents.

   
   

What are some highlights/achievements in your job as a Principal?

The role of a principal has many challenges. But it’s all about human dynamics – how we behave and react to situations, and how we accept changes and make progress.

For example, the annual year-end graduation concert is a stressful time for some teachers. But if you look at it from a different perspective, it strengthens the bond among the teaching staff as we spend more time together brainstorming for ideas, creating props, and purchasing costumes. As a team, we also learnt to understand each other better as we tap on each other’s strengths whilst working on projects and events.

   
   

Why do you enjoy working at The Little Skool House?

Being part of NTUC First Campus, I feel that I belong to part of a big family where there is warmth and support. There are opportunities for advancement, training, scholarships and overseas professional experience.
   
   

What are your career goals for the future?

I wish to continue contributing to the early childhood industry by mentoring and sharing ideas with those who have less experience in this industry. Hopefully, together, we can reach out to more children who will benefit from quality preschool education.
