Extended Care: Learning activities that extend through the day for the parents’ convenience. For children attending our pre-schools or grades K-6. Hours and payments must be booked and paid for in advance.

The three-year-old program is a healthy blend of social skills as well as academic skill. Our main focus, at this age, is on developing social and emotional skills such as getting along with others, getting used to routines and group activities, sharing and developing positive feelings about self and others. We also begin a more structured academic process. We make sure your child’s first teachers will be loving and caring people who help make the challenge of leaving home for the first time fun and rewarding.

The four-year-old program is a good mixture of social and emotional skills, which are needed throughout life as well as the academic and physical skills which are needed to prepare our child for kindergarten. These readiness skills and concepts will be taught in such a way as to build your young child’s confidence and make learning itself an exciting and rewarding experience. It is taught with stimulating, hands-on activities so students enjoy learning. Fun! This is a readiness program for kindergarten.
