ECE Centre

The Early Childhood Education Centre program ensures girls experience the very best in education from their first day until their last day of school. Connecting play and creativity with foundational skills in literacy and numeracy, the junior and senior kindergarten programs enable each student to reach her potential within a supportive, nurturing community.

The facility is nestled between the Junior School and the surrounding woods, on the west side of the campus. Four and five year old girls are welcomed into light, airy classrooms designed specifically with their needs in mind. Learning centres, abundant in resources, are tailored to their development with access to a carefully planned, secure outdoor play area.
