In November 2014, Jayne Nadarajoo who is the founder of White Lodge, opened its doors to students. With 17 years of strong experience, Melbourne Specialist International School has positioned itself as one of the best schools for special educational needs in Singapore and the region. We cater for a range of children with special needs from the 3 years of age through to 21 years. We believe in a child-centered approach where our teachers use the power of concrete experiences mediated through dance, drama, music and visual arts to engage our students in a nurturing learning environment. With this approach, we are able to readily achieve literacy, numeracy and living skills goals to further facilitate each student's development. With a lower than average teacher-child ratio of 1:4, the members of staff strive to create a vibrant and meaningful reality for all of our students. We also support our teachers with a range of services delivered by our therapy team. These include specially qualified members of staff such as an Art Therapist, Music Therapist, Occupational Therapist and Speech and Language Therapist with access to a Physiotherapist and Drama Therapist when needed. All of these members work closely together with our teaching staff to deliver services in line with an integrated approach. Our website also provides further information about school enrolment, our curriculum programmes and career opportunities in Singapore.
