Preschool Program: Our intent is to promote the health, safety, nutrition, and well-being of every child at our centre. In our Preschool program we will plan for and create a positive learning environment in which each child's learning and development will be supported. We will gather information in ways that are natural and comfortable for children by developing positive relationships with each individual child and their families. We will organize our program around the four foundational conditions that are important for children to grow and flourish: Belonging, Well-being, Engagement, and Expression. Information on children's interests and progress will be gathered in the course of everyday classroom activities. The results will be immediately put to work to strengthen the classroom program. Through observation our educators will set specific goals to benefit all children's enjoyment, learning, development, and full participation. Our educators will program curriculum including small and large group, sensory activities, gross and fine motor activities, outdoor learning, and literacy activities based on the children's interests. We believe a planned program supports early learning.
Our preschool program is licensed for 32 children with 2 rooms of 16 each. We encourage families to become involved in our program as families know their children best and are the first and most powerful influence on learning and development. Partnership with families and communities help early childhood settings to best meet the needs of young children.
