St. Stephen-St. Edward Pre-Kindergarten Program
Starting Pre-Kindergarten is a major milestone for your child and for you. Our goal is to emphasize social and emotional development and to expand children’s knowledge of their environment and to begin academic skills. Pre-Kindergarten introduces your child to structured activities, to learning cooperation and interaction with peers while exploring a new environment.
Pre-Kindergarten is based on an atmosphere of play. We enrich and nurture young children’s growth and development through engaging lessons, center based learning and technology. New concepts are presented in a variety of fun and child friendly approaches. Stories, flannel board, puppets, action poems, movement activities, songs and teacher/student interactions are part of a daily lesson. The activities and lessons that help prepare your child for Kindergarten and school success include:
Musical Performances for Parents
Field Trips
Celebrations
Participation in “Big School” Activities
