In the four-year preschool the materials, equipment and curriculum are designed to reflect the developmental level of the child and to foster growth and learning. Children will have the opportunity to experiment with art materials, participate in cooking, travel on field trips, and exercise through both outdoor and indoor play. Music, books, stories, puzzles, readiness activities and dramatic play will be available daily. Pre-reading and pre-writing activities are an integral part of the program. 

The children will be encouraged to be independent with self-help skills such as attending to bathroom needs, washing hands, placing personal items brought from home each day in the appropriate place, packing up their own backpack prior to dismissal and putting on socks, shoes, coats, and sweaters when necessary.

Much of our learning is in the area of social adjustments such as learning to share, playing with others, cooperating, respecting authority, developing awareness of other’s rights and needs, and taking care of property.

We plan a classroom climate that reflects God’s love for us. Through role modeling, we help the children develop Christian attitudes of truth, peace, integrity, and love toward one another. We want each child to feel secure enough to venture into new friendships and assured enough to take new steps toward autonomy.
