St James Church Kindergarten

Located at 25 Gilstead Road is a mansion that is on the conservation list and has been converted to other adaptive uses. This house, named 'Westbourne”, was built in 1927 for the prominent medical doctor, Yin Suat Chuan (better known as S. C. Yin). It housed Yin and his family, including his son, Leslie Charteris, whose books inspired the TV series, The Saint. After Yin and his family, Dr J.S. Webster, a radiologist at the General Hospital (present-day Singapore General Hospital) who established the St John's Ambulance division in Singapore, lived in the house. Following Webster's departure, 25 Gilstead Road became home to the former Spastic Children's Association of Singapore (now known as the Cerebral Palsy Alliance Singapore). The association moved to its new premises in 2003. Subsequently, 25 Gilstead Road was tenanted to Gracefields Kindergarten Pte Ltd. and later to St. James' Church Kindergarten.
