PK 5's

IMG_1276.jpg

This class was developed specifically to challenge older 4-year-old and younger 5-year-old children and give them one extra year to mature, develop and succeed before enrolling in Kindergarten. 

A positive sense of self is promoted with learning experiences, helping children feel confident and competent as learners. Kindergarten readiness skills are fully developed, allowing children to feel confident as they move on.  As children are ready, some kindergarten skills may be introduced.
