Our Kindergarten Program
Preparing Your Child for School Success.
Program Overview: Our kindergarten program is designed for children in the year before starting school (typically 4-5 years old). We follow the Early Years Learning Framework and incorporate pre-literacy, pre-numeracy, and social-emotional learning activities that prepare children for their transition to formal schooling.
What Your Child Will Learn:
- Early literacy skills (phonics, letter recognition, story comprehension)
- Mathematical concepts (counting, patterns, measurement, problem-solving)
- Social skills (sharing, cooperation, conflict resolution)
- Independence and self-help skills
- Creative expression through art, music, and dramatic play
- Physical development through outdoor play and movement activities
School Readiness Focus: We work closely with families to ensure each child develops the confidence, skills, and independence needed for a successful start to their school journey.
