What children make here
Our emphasis is not on the nicest-looking creation. It is on each student's journey to get there.
Our City
Design and build a model city as a team, from tower blocks to the bus stop.
Transforming Art
Take inspiration from an artist's work and make your own interpretation.
Nature Building
Build a habitat from sticks and card, then sculpt the wildlife that lives in it.
Botanical Studies
Observe mushrooms from the top, side and underneath, and sketch what you see.
Study visits
More than an art class
We are rooted in art and design. Unlocking creativity takes a wider approach, across science, nature, culture and history.
Creative art & design
Activities that get children to use their imagination and think outside the box.
Project-based learning
Children learn best by doing. Every class is hands-on, with mentors guiding and coaching.
Leadership & teamwork
Group work where children practise how to lead and how to follow.
Study visits
Outdoor trips that broaden what children see, and what they draw on in class.
Creative learning encompasses much more. It includes problem-solving, critical thinking, teamwork, emotional intelligence, and adaptability — skills that are invaluable throughout life.
What parents and students say
Over the past 13 years, I have invested in bilden’s creative learning program for my son, and I have seen firsthand the lasting benefits. While some may see it as an expense, I firmly believe that the skills, confidence, and life lessons gained through creative learning are priceless.
We are blessed to have Aunty Jackie and her team as his mentors, who guided him through his childhood to teenage life. Millions of words cannot describe our heartfelt gratitude and thank you!
Bilden was the first place that taught me how to think and problem solve creatively outside of school. Students will come across challenges that will help them grow holistically while helping them develop a keener sense of curiosity about the world around them.
Great experience throughout my entire primary and secondary years. I built up my confidence in public speaking and leadership. The teachers never failed to guide each and every student with their own unique ways and approaches.
Bilden is a safe space where all ideas are appreciated. I have learnt a range of soft skills which are not taught in schools and I am forever grateful for having this exposure at a young age.
Mentors are very passionate in education and character building. They sacrifice their time, heart and soul to build batches of beautiful souls. Highly recommended to send your children here.
Our founder
Bilden Creative Learning is the fruit of Jackie's long experience as a professional designer and as a lecturer.
She received her art and design education and was awarded a fellowship in education by the Chartered Society of Designers in the United Kingdom. After several years in the international design industry in Hong Kong, Singapore and Kuala Lumpur, she spent 8 years as a senior lecturer at the School of Design, Hong Kong Polytechnic University.
There she observed that students who had enjoyed creative stimulation as children made better designers. They had kept their childhood ability to see infinite possibilities. She concluded that any child can benefit, whatever profession they later choose, and the Bilden Creative Learning Programme was born in 1995.

Explorer is RM 380 for 8 lessons. Core varies, from RM 1,000+ per term (8–10 weeks). Ask us on WhatsApp
