Every Day Kindergarten

Children bring with them a unique kind of curiosity, energy and zest of life. We believe it is our role to provide a kindergarten learning environment that facilitates the best possible place to grow, develop, and learn. A play-based program in an environment that is trusting and encouraging will enable each child to feel comfortable enough to take risks to learn, enabling them to reach their potential.

We will endeavour to plan, adapt and/or change instruction to meet the particular needs of each child. A variety of learning experiences using various instructional strategies will be implemented to meet many different styles of learning. We are committed to the growth of skills and attitudes in each developmental area (social, emotional, physical, intellectual, and creative). We want your child's first year in school to be the best beginning filled with happy and successful experiences.

Every day kindergarten programs run on a cost-recovery basis for a fee, requiring sufficient registrations and deposits.

French Immersion Every Day Kindergarten

Full-time French Immersion kindergarten helps students learning French have double the language instruction. This supports language growth and acquisition at a faster rate and allows students to get the most out of their first year of French language learning. This program is available at École Broxton Park School in Spruce Grove.

French Immersion

French Immersion gives your child an opportunity to become highly proficient in oral and written French, and to experience French culture. This optional program of choice is located at École Broxton Park School in Spruce Grove and École Meridian Heights in Stony Plain. For more information, please visit our French Immersion page.

Nature-Based Kindergarten

Our Nature-Based Kindergarten program is based out of Muir Lake School, where children from across the division participate in unique curriculum-based learning experiences primarily within a dedicated woodland classroom. This optional kindergarten program of choice gets children active and in touch with nature while extending their kindergarten experience from half-time to full-time. Nature programming is offered in two streams: Nature Kindergarten (full-curriculum) and Nature Enrichment (extension to regular kindergarten). For more information, please visit our Nature-Based Kindergarten page.

 

PSD Christian Program

The PSD Christian Program is available to families who want their children taught in a non-denominational and spiritually nurturing environment. The program is open to students from kindergarten through Grade 9, with the kindergarten class located at Brookwood School in Spruce Grove. For more information, please visit Brookwood's Christian Program page.
