Look how they've grown! Our Fours Class is filled with children who are social and confident. They will be ready to succeed in kindergarten and world beyond.
“When I’m in kindergarten, I’m going to miss preschool!”
DAILY SCHEDULE FOR FOUR YEAR OLDS
“I know I’ve had an impact on children when I witness them putting into practice the skills and concepts they have learned and the expressions of pride, confidence and empowerment that goes along with those successes! And, when they go on to encourage and pass along that knowledge to their peers or siblings, it is extremely rewarding! ”
Our 4-year-old class is truly a happy place to be! Our children shine in their independent play, collaborative skills and are encouraged in all aspects of learning in a caring environment. Children enjoy a varied curriculum centered on global and local themes and we build learning skills through independent play and adult-led activities. We engage all the senses through age-appropriate activities that both challenge and nurture our biggest children and we celebrate as they enjoy this special year in pre-school.
Examples of themes in our 4’s class includes: Scientists, Artists, Wacky Week, Space, Countries Around the World.
