Preschool 3 to 5 years 

Our intention for preschoolers is to facilitate the emotional and intellectual development of each child through guided play and structured lessons in a loving and safe environment that provides the right condition for spiritual, emotional, physical and intellectual growth.

This provides a solid foundation to help preschoolers develop their emotional and intellectual abilities for problem solving, expressing what they need in a meaningful way, explore ways to move through their frustrations without being taken over by them. Creating a sense of belonging form mutual sharing, respecting other children’s interests and needs. 

Preschoolers develop positive self esteem, self confidence, self image and self concept:

• Providing a “home away from home” experience so children feel a sense of compassion and safety.
  
• Planning and providing daily activities that support and promote each child’s kindness, listening, emotional, social, creative, cognitive, and physical abilities.
  
• Providing effective behaviour guidance relevant to each child's needs.
  
• Encouraging good interaction with peers and adults to practice appreciation and social interaction.
  
• Helping children to share their feelings and ideas from a place of kindness.

 

Preschoolers practice kindness, emotional and creative development by:

• Inspiring children to participate in creating and maintain a safe and healthy environment.

• Implementing a range of appealing and challenging play based experiences to stimulate the child’s curiosity, inventiveness, problem solving and communication shills.

• Promoting each child’s heath and well being

• Providing appropriate experiences related to finding joy in practicing reading, social skills, science and mathematics, 

• Modeling good use of language to support develop kindness and  manners.
