PRESCHOOL 2023-2024 Preschool programs are based on responsive curriculum where the educators offer an exciting, reflective program based on children’s interests. Our approach focuses on the five areas of healthy child development: social, emotional, physical, creative and cognitive. Based on our responsive approach, programs include various learning opportunities, engagement in open ended activities, free plan and exploration - all concepts that align with the communication, thinking and social competencies that are the core of the new Provincial school curriculum.
