Preschool Program Activities You can expect your child to experience: - Free time to play and share toys, puzzles, blocks, playdough and books and to explore dramatic play, the listening station, water table and sand table. -Themed, pre-math, pre-science, and fine motor activities. -Circle time with stories and songs using actions. -Craft time involving pasting, cutting, painting and colouring. -Snack time and show-and-share. -Gross motor play, scooters, balance beam, bean bags. -Special events such as classroom visitors, field trips and seasonal parties. -Recognition of alphabets, numbers, colours and shapes through repetition. Playschool Program activities: (3 year old program) differs slightly from the preschool program. There is less time spent on recognition of alphabets, numbers, colours and shapes through repetition. There is no table time in the 3 year program (coloring, writing) and circle time is shorter because of the shorter attention span. If you have more questions about the difference between programs please contact us. 4 year old Program 2014 To attend a child must be 3 years old by March 31, 2014 and potty trained. 3 year old Program 2014 The three year old program runs one day a week.
