Preschool in Flanders, NJ 07836
Fun n Friends Nursery School is a preschool program for children 2
through 5 years old. We offer two, three and four day sessions and do not
require a child to be potty-trained to be enrolled.
The school was formed in 1980 as a playgroup to meet the needs of
members and friends of the United Presbyterian Church of Flanders. At that
time the enrollment was 12. The program has since grown to a current
enrollment of 126 children. In the spring of 1985, the nursery school was
certified by the State of New Jersey.
The program is designed to teach basic pre-school fundamentals through
educational activities that are fun oriented. Emphasis is placed on the
development of a positive self- image, peer socialization and an awareness
of Gods world, in a warm and caring atmosphere.
The staff consists of a director and 11 teachers and assistant teachers. This
well qualified teacher body is aided and over-seen by a 5 member executive
board. All staff members are certified in CPR and First Aid and participate in
annual training mandated by the state. All staff have had a CARI fingerprint
background check by the State of New Jersey and CHRI live scan electronic
fingerprinting done for the Bureau of Licensing.
Now you know who we are and we would love the opportunity to get to
know you! Should you currently be looking for or need a nursery school in
the future, we respectfully request that you keep us in mind. You are always
welcome to make an appointment to stop by to see the school for yourself!
