Curriculum Guide:
Children learn through play that is active, child-selected, and process-oriented. It is through play that children develop the cognitive (problem solving, abstract symbolism), social (listening, speaking, sharing), language (expression of ideas, communication), physical (gross and fine motor, spatial), emotional (self-esteem, self-reliance) and creative (artistic, dramatic) skills needed to become confident learners.

Our preschool curriculum is designed to encourage hands-on exploration of age appropriate concepts and skills which have been introduced in a large group (circle time setting).
