Pre-School

Curriculum

Our classes include a balance of guided play activities, creative art work, music, conversation, story time, dramatic play, and group activities. In addition, there will be a snack time and large muscle play activities. Each child is helped to grow in independence, social development, development of his/her self-esteem, and their own unique talents and abilities. This will all be present in a Christian environment.

Our curriculum will center around the nativity story. Our goals are to help the children know that Christmas is the celebration of the birth of Jesus, to share the joy of Christmas with others, and to experience Christmas in an atmosphere that is low-key and joyous.
