We are a Montessori school with a primary focus on academics. Please see the section on Our Programs for more info.
At the Mississauga Valley site we have a preschool room with a maximum of 24 children and a separate toddler room with a maximum of 15 toddlers. The Casa classrooms at our Bristol and River Grove locations have a mixed age group. This means we have a maximum of 24 preschoolers (2.5 to 4 years) at any one time. Within this maximum, we are also licensed to have 5 toddlers (18 months to 2.5) in our class.
Children are taken to the washroom at specific times during the day. If a child needs to go to the washroom outside of this time, they are always accompanied by a teacher.
The children nap for 2 hours in the afternoon, after lunch. Parents must provide bedding for the cots their child will be sleeping on.
