Our program is geared toward children 3, 4, and 5 years of age. In preparation for Kindergarten, we follow the Early Learning Guide published by the Saskatchewan Ministry of Education. In addition to our English curriculum we playfully introduce our children to a second language, German, through songs, rhymes, and books. The curriculum offers many opportunities to learn and develop through play and exploration in a warm, caring, and well structured environment. In addition to interactive group-learning, we will work with individual children and small groups on specific skills.
Activities will focus on developing social, reasoning and problem solving skills. Most importantly, we aim to provide children with a balanced program that will make their first years of "preschool" an enjoyable and fun experience.
Learning continues outdoors with nature study and physical activities. Our school has access to a playground and natural areas. This "extended classroom" will allow us to enrich our curriculum through outdoor education.
