We are very excited to be able to offer full-day Kindergarten in September 2010. Our Kindergarten teacher, Miss Lisa Marie Labossiere, has over 20 years of experience - most of it in teaching but also as a Kinesiologist and Preschool Supervisor. She also holds a Special Education and a Physical Education Specialist degree. She is an energetic, warm, team-oriented person with the ability to work co-operatively and add positively to the classroom environment.

Our Kindergarten program is designed to help each child reach his or her full potential. We strive to provide constructive and consistent learning experiences that help build each child's confidence, encourage them to continue to see learning as both enjoyable and useful, and provide a strong foundation for their future intellectual, physical, emotional, creative, spiritual, and social development. Children learn through integrated activities, play, and inquiry-based activities.

In each child, the intellectual, physical, social, emotional, and creative development are interrelated. In order to address all dimenisons of the child, the Kindergarten program also includes opportunities for self-expression and self-discovery through music, drama, and language activities, as well as for co-operative activities with peers.

Necessary adaptations and/or modifications are and will be made for children with special needs. Strengths and needs as well as an Action Plan are discussed with a team of key individuals including parents, teachers, principal, Learning Assistance teacher, Speech-Language Pathologist, physiotherapist, and any other para-professionals involved with the child.
