                    CENTRE



                   elcome to the Blue Hills Study
                   Centre.  We opened our doors in
            W2017 at the Blue Hills Shopping
            Centre, which offers ample free parking and
            shopping convenience to parents who are
            waiting for their children to complete their
            Kumon study session.
            Our vision is to ensure that each and every
            one of our students is nurtured to become
            smarter through self-study. Children become
            smarter through studying work which is
            appropriate for their individual level of ability
            and development. Children who are able to
            self-study beyond school grade level are able
            to meet the challenges of school, university
            and life head on.

            This is what I believe every parent wants for
            their child and I, as your Kumon Instructor, feel
            privileged to participate in the attainment of
            these goals.
