The school has been designed with particular attention to the differences between each age group. Although some children enter Nursery School with classroom “experience” through Sunday School, Nursery School presents new surroundings and faces. Consequently, the challenge to “let go” continues to be one of personal growth.
A typical day at Nursery School is filled with lots of learning and fun. Regardless of the day’s activity, Nursery School is designed to educate children in new and interesting ways, preparing them for the adventures and challenges of their next step in education. Through the enthusiasm of our experienced teaching staff, we find great joy in presenting Nursery School as a fun place to be and to learn more about sharing, helping, taking turns, listening, and learning those things important for kindergarten readiness.
Our school year begins on the Monday after Labor Day and continues until Memorial Day.
My Toddler and Me
This program will be held from 9:00 to 10:30 a.m. on Wednesdays. Circle Time consists of a short Bible lesson, a story, and songs/fingerplays. Every week, we will create a simple craft that ties into our story or theme for the day. This is a wonderful opportunity for your toddler to begin socializing, as well as for parents and caregivers to make connections with other families in the area. We hope to see you at Toddler Time!
