Kindergarten
Welcome to Kindergarten! A time of transition for your child where they will learn many things and grow in the areas of Christian Education, academics, play, socialization and physical and emotional development.

In Outdoor Kindergarten, the child is exposed to a variety of experiences with the natural world. As the children build a connection to the natural environment, they also learn to problem solve, develop language, showcase creative sills, and demonstrate social growth.

Christian Education
Children learn to understand that God is everywhere and is full of love. They learn to listen and respond to Him through prayer, service, and love for all the things He has created. Children will listen to the Scriptures using the stories in the Bible, dramatize important events such as Christmas and Easter, and learn how to pray with all their hearts. They will celebrate the Christian Mystery by participating in Mass and learning about the sacraments. Service for Kindergarten is fostered by learning how to live in a community with others.
Language Arts
The surrounding world inspires us to be curious and to learn new things. In Kindergarten, the students listen to stories, learn valuable lessons from the characters and express their thoughts and feelings. With the use of rhymes, poems, songs, and pictures, students will discover and learn how language works. They will learn how to use different reading and oral strategies and continue growing in print and letter knowledge.
Math
Math is everywhere! Students will discover that things can be counted using numbers in quantities and can be communicated in many ways. They will be able to use concrete materials like blocks, marbles, toys, and other things in their surroundings and the environment. They will visualize Math through pictures and symbols from 1-10 and beyond. Students will also discover that Math is made up of patterns which can be identified.

Science
Kindergarten students will learn many things about plants, animals, and the environment they live in. They will learn to observe, ask simple questions and develop a sense of wonder. The students will make exploratory observations using their senses. Using non-standard measurements like paper clips, their hands, and feet to name a few, they will be able to measure objects they see around them. Students will understand that the world around them is truly a gift that should always be taken care of.
Social Studies
The students will learn that the community they live in is diverse because people are different, yet similar in many ways. They will find out more about who they are and where they are from. In their own simple ways, they will be able to ask questions, interpret, and communicate their ideas. They will also learn that people have rights, roles, and responsibilities and they need to learn how to do their part and to respect others.
Fine Arts
Students will get a chance to express their ideas, feelings, and experiences in different ways. They will use drama, music and visual arts as a means to express who they are. Art will be intertwined with different subjects like Language Arts, Science, Socials Studies and Math. The students will explore the use of the different materials available to create a design. They will also get a chance to do Aboriginal Art and begin to understand symbolism as an expression of meaning.
