WELCOME EVERYONE FROM ALL THE TEACHERS AT ST.ANDREWS NURSERY SCHOOL & KINDERGARTEN

PRESCHOOL EDUCATION is the most exciting and challenging area of education today. Research and experience indicate:

  • The impact of education at this age has a far stronger and lasting effect than on any other age.
  • The first five years of a child’s life are the years when physical growth, mental capacity, emotions and communication are most marked and most important.
  • Even the best home environment needs to be tempered with early contacts with groups of children to encourage socialization skills.   

OUR INVITATION TO SUCH EDUCATION is provided through:

  • Our modern facilities, large, airy rooms, child size equipment, well equipped interest centers, indoor playroom, and new, state of the art playground, as well as a well-equipped gymnasium.
  • College educated, professional teachers. All lead teachers and assistant teachers are certified or are completing requirements to obtain certification.
  • A well-rounded program with emphasis on first hand experiences through planned classroom activities.
  • Opportunities for parents to share their child’s close relation with our school through meetings, regular newsletters, an internet website, individual conferences and classroom participation.

We Are Offering A New Class In September 2008 - Kindergarten Enrichment.
