We work to create an atmosphere that inspires lifelong learning. We are driven by the co-operative spirit of parental involvement and we endeavour to build a thriving community both inside and outside of our walls.
As a nursery school we are not a daycare, rather we provide a half-day program for preschoolers and kindergarteners.
Our 2- and 3-day programs are highly sought-after in the community with the 3-day program often reaching waitlist status by late-Fall. Join us in the morning on Tuesdays and Thursdays or on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays so your little one can experience our warm and nurturing preschool environment.
Looking for more routine? Students in the 5-day program thrive on the repetition and reinforcement of a play-based learning environment every weekday morning. Our caring and nurturing staff help to ease little ones into the group setting. Not sure about 5-days? No problem, you can increase to 5-days any time during in the school year — pending availability — when you feel your child is ready.
With small class ratios, engaged RECE staff, and a playful and nurturing environment we create a truly enriching experience. Building strong foundations in language (English and French), math, motor skills, etc. we encourage you to enrol in the morning program and inquire about availability in the extended day program.
A single classroom environment allows the older children to strengthen their learning foundations and enhance their nurturing side while they work alongside the JKs in the classroom. Our graduating Kindergarteners go on to Grade 1 with firm learning foundations and the confidence for “big school”! Take a tour to learn about the curriculum and explore our classrooms.
