Preschool (3.5 – 5 years)
This program has a well-planned daily schedule that includes lots of learning, free
play, outdoor activities and several enrichment programs each week. Children are
provided with many opportunities to explore and experiment with concepts through
play, hands-on activities and guided discussions with teachers and will gain the
necessary skills for kindergarten readiness. Preschool class will also go on field
trips on bi-monthly basis.
Our teachers work with the educational director to design activities that have achievable
goals relevant to each child’s overall development.
