Pre-school Program

pre=school program

Overview

Pre-school rooms are equipped with age and developmentally appropriate learning materials. Activities reflect the interests of the group and are often child directed. As children engage in the activities that interest them, their feedback allows staff to build meaningful learning opportunities based on each child’s individual needs. Willowbrae Academy curriculum has three unique programs. Our Young Scholars program is based on three key learning areas: literacy, mathematics, and science. Children are exposed to activities in these areas that will encourage; self-expression, listening, exploration & discovery, identification & recognition, and problem solving. Willowbrae’s BodyBreak KID FIT focuses on activity and education. We provide physical activities and healthy lifestyle education while children are in our care. Our Willowbrae Creative Kids includes: visual arts, dramatic play, music, dance & creative movement and culture & heritage. Children are exposed to developmentally appropriate activities in these key areas to help support social, emotional and cognitive growth.

For the entire centre, I would not hesitate to recommend it to any of my friends.  You have created a wonderful facility with wonderful teachers.  I will be forever grateful for your guidance, support and advice over the past 3 years.

Our son is still going to Willowbrae in Hammonds Plains 2 days a week and loves it.  So do we! There are some wonderful staff in that location.

Maria I

Fascinating centre, very clean, top notch security, caring and understanding team. Its not a cheap daycare, but totally worth it. Would recommend to a friend, cameras in every room are just amazing.

Steven S

Thank you again for taking the time today to give me a tour of your facility. It is by far the most beautiful daycare I have ever been in, and the cleanest!  A great job to you and all of your staff!
