The full-day Kindergarten Program fosters independence and choice-making, encourages problem-solving  and promotes creativity and positive self-esteem. Children are offered the opportunity to work and play in a small, intimate community which encourages respect for self, others and their environment. Children are exposed to a variety of themes integrating language, math, science and social studies concepts, introduced through a hands-on approach. Indoor and outdoor play is an important part of the kindergartner's day.
