Brunei: Treetops re-opening September 2025


As we have previously communicated, we would like to keep you informed of developing information regarding Treetops Setting. 

We now have progress with essential onboarding clearances and therefore we will be able to re-open Treetops setting on Monday 1st September 2025. 

This will be for our existing families, and families who have registration dates already planned. 

For families who are interested in placing their child into the setting, please do continue to contact treetops.nursery@modschools.org where you can access an enquiry form for us to understand further what your childcare needs are. Although we cannot offer your children immediate registration dates, it will allow us to communicate effectively when we are able to support more families and extend our services. 

We know this is a difficult time for many of our families within BFB and those arriving. We appreciate the importance of this service and what it can provide for the community. 

Although reopening on the 1st September, in the event that a staff member is absent and we cannot maintain the legal qualified staff to child ratio required by DFE statutory regulations, it will be necessary to close the setting. Although we hope this to not be the case, I would like to remind you all of the urgency to update your contact details to ensure that you can be informed if this were to happen. Updates would also be made on Family. 

The team will be available to support you and your children, as they always do, but please be patient with responses. Their priority will be the operational side of the setting, and admin questions may take a little longer to gain information for. Our early years advisor, Tricia Wood, can also be contacted if you have any further childcare questions: tricia.wood@modschools.org

Thank you for your understanding. 

Kind regards, 
Louise Deane 
Treetops Assistant Manager
