This preschool program is all about learning through play; encouraging children to develop independence, learning to solve problems, exploring the world around them, and nurturing their natural desire to learn. Every month we create a fun theme that guides the various daily activities.

Upon returning inside, the children will enjoy snack time, activity centres, arts & crafts, circle and story time.

Throughout the year, the preschool program will go on a variety of field trips and participate in special activities such as swimming and skating. Parent participation for these outings and special activities is greatly appreciated.

Our ECE certified staff provide a fun and safe environment for your little one to grow and develop their cognitive, physical, and social skills at their own pace. Join us in the mornings or afternoons, where your preschooler will build a strong foundation for the routines of Kindergarten and beyond.
