Our Mission

We recognize that every child is unique and we strive to promote the following qualities in each child:

  • a feeling of confidence and a positive self image

  • intellectual growth (pre-reading, pre-writing, and basic math and science concepts)

  • their curiosity, exploration, and discovery of the world around them

  • listening and language skills - in various structured activities; and by initiating, selecting, and organizing their own play in free time activities

  • good co-ordination of small and large muscles (outdoor as well as indoors)

  • functioning independently

  • positive peer and adult interaction in group situations

  • the fine art of self discipline

  • the ability to express their thoughts and feelings in a manner appropriate to the environment and acceptable to others. By providing a safe environment and a rich variety of activities, we can create a rewarding and valuable learning experience for young children that they will carry with them for the rest of their lives.
