Garden International School’s Early Years Centre (EYC) in Desa Sri Hartamas serves children aged 3–5 within the UK Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and a British-based curriculum. Children learn through play while building early literacy and numeracy, supported by specialist lessons and Mandarin as an additional language. A distinctive feature is Jungle School, where classes move outdoors for hands-on exploration; GIS has further expanded nature-play with newly developed, multi-sensory outdoor spaces for its youngest learners. The EYC sits five minutes from the Main Campus in Mont Kiara, easing the transition into GIS’s through-school pathway (3–18). Families can use the school’s bus service, and fee information (including Early Years tuition) is published online. The wider GIS community totals 2,000+ students, with long-established strengths in sport and the arts
