Expressed through flowers

A nonverbal florist… all of teenage years
Presented this as the skill that would earn him the money through the efforts of his enterprising mother who taught him the skill that he picked up well.
Presenting this, he typed on his AAC device that he’ll be back the following year with another bouquet.

Baked with love …
A boy who started in preschool years … with poor expressive language and poor eye contact … grew to become this talented creator of these lovely cakes, all but only of 15 years of age.
Expression beyond words … of a talent buried and found.
The story can be found in Celebrating SpecialKids … a 10th anniversary book to celebrate all these special kids.

Educational Therapist Teacher Cara at The SKILT Centre is running a composition writing workshop for P6s on 18 July — and there are still a few spots left.

If your child struggles to get started or doesn't know how to develop their ideas, this is a good one. Small group, focused attention, registration closes 11 July.

Drop us a message or call/WhatsApp 64510028 to find out more.

Composition writing is one of the hardest parts of English to improve in the final stretch before PSLE — and for many P6s, it's not about effort. It's about not knowing where to start.

Some kids freeze at the blank page. Some write two lines and stop. Some know exactly what they want to say but can't get it down on paper.

That's what our upcoming writing workshop is designed for.

On 18 July, Ms Cara Tan will work with a small group of P6s on how to plan and structure a composition, and how to say more with the words they already know. No shortcuts — just a clear, repeatable approach they can take into the exam.

6 spots only. Registration closes 11 July at 6pm.
📅 18 July 2026, Saturday · 9am – 12pm
📍 The SKILT Centre, 99 Soo Chow Walk, S575384
💰 $381.50 after GST
Drop us a message, comment below, or call/WhatsApp 6873 2581 to save your child a seat.

An eventful 14 years, and grateful for each season. 🎉

From opening our doors in 2012 as one of the first private developmental paediatric clinics in Singapore, to launching The SKILT Centre in 2017, to learning — together with so many of you — how to keep showing up through a pandemic, growing into Bukit Timah, and now supporting more than 4,500 families: every season has taught us something.

But the biggest privilege has always been the same — walking alongside your families, some for a little while, some for years, and watching your children grow into exactly who they are.

Thank you for 14 years of trust. Here’s to many more seasons together.

From all of us at SpecialKids clinic, to all dads especially those we see at our clinic: Happy Father’s Day!

We’ve seen what presence, a gentle or firm word, a listening ear, a challenge, playfulness, comfort, safety can do and the profound difference in the lives of the kids we see. In all the different and varied ways you show up, we love you.
