At the West Hillhurst Community Preschool, we offer several classes for 3-5 year old children. Using a play-based curriculum, our children develop the social, emotional and intellectual skills to help them lay a strong foundation as they move forward through more formal schooling. Using the in-house facilities of the community centre including the ice rink and field, we are able to offer a selection of unique activities as part of our regular curriculum.
The Preschool Spanish programming is a first approach to the language. Our native Spanish speaking teacher, Ms Guilliana introduces the kids to a new language through playful activities and music with passion, and discipline.
