Preschool plays an essential role in early childhood development. It prepares your child socially, emotionally and academically for kindergarten, and ensures that they are ready for a classroom environment.

Long-term benefits include improved confidence, self-esteem, communication, and group interactions.  It also introduces a classroom schedule and format, and strengthens their ability to follow instructions. Preschool kick-starts their education and is a great foundation for a life of learning.  

Classes range from eight to 20 children and are supervised by two instructors.
