Overview

Our morning Preschool classes focus on the essentials of early childhood development, incorporating a learn-through-play structure that includes such things as story time, arts and crafts, music and singing, and outdoor trips. Children are encouraged to participate in activities based on their level of ability and interest.

  • Two large indoor playrooms, stocked with toys, books, music and more
  • Private, safe, child-friendly garden
  • Healthy snacks
  • Excursions to local places of interest
  • First-aid trained and CPR certified staff

We facilitate learning through play with various seasonal themes of inquiry and exploration. Each day will have its own special focus: Mondays are our theme-focused mornings; Tuesdays and Fridays include art, music and movement; Wednesdays are for nature exploration; and on Thursdays we will go to the library and listen to storybooks.

Preschool begins with a flexible drop off time between 8-8:30 and pick up is at 12.
Starting August 2024, an option is if available if you wish to pick your child up at 13:00, with an additional small fee*

* Please note: for accounting purposes, if you are signing up for the additional hour/later pickup, it is a fixed additional price that cannot be changed if you come earlier on one/some day(s)

Art, music and movement

These classes are held on Tuesday & Friday mornings and are a great way for your child to develop and express their creativity & uniqueness.

In our art classes, creative expression isn’t about the product. It’s about the process. Every child has creative potential and is capable of expressing that creativity. The creative process provides opportunites to celebrate a child’s uniqueness, which is an essential element of developing a strong sense of identity.

Our music and movement activities use sensory modalities such as vision, hearing and movement to support learning in a fun and engaging way. This is especially important as music and movement instruction has been shown to improve children’s memory, cognitive development, learning skills and expressive ability.
