Our Philosophy<br />
PRESCHOOL/CHILD<br />
Registration starts<br />
August 16<br />
We offer programs for children age 0-6 years in a<br />
variety of facilities to meet everyones' needs. Our<br />
programs are staffed with trained, caring individuals<br />
to provide a fun and safe learning environment.<br />
• Label, label, label. Label your child’s belongings.<br />
• Uh oh, I gotta go! Take your child to the washroom before class.<br />
Transitioning? Use pull-ups!<br />
• When does the program end again? To double check dates ask<br />
the instructor or visit www.strathcona.ca/registration to see the<br />
online guide.<br />
• Yum, snack time. Make sure your child has one small nut free<br />
healthy snack. Full day programs need a healthy lunch too.<br />
• Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. Use reusable containers.<br />
• Don’t stress about mess. Dress your child in play clothes that<br />
are art friendly.<br />
• Gym time is active time. Put appropriate footwear on your child.<br />
• Information is golden. Watch your email for the link to our<br />
information form. Bring your completed form on the first day.<br />
Our philosophy<br />
Our preschool recreation programs reflect<br />
the understanding of the importance of play in a<br />
child's healthy development during the early years.<br />
In these play-based recreation programs, children<br />
are encouraged to develop social competencies,<br />
emotional maturity, language skills, cognitive<br />
development and fundamental movement skills.<br />
We believe that play is not a luxury, but rather<br />
a necessity for a child's healthy development.<br />

• We need to know. If your child requires an EpiPen, let us know.<br />
Your child’s EpiPen will remain with them during their program and<br />
return home each day.<br />
Remember: Snacks and clean shoes!<br />
Please remember to send your children with a nut-free light snack for all half-day<br />
programs. In the full day programs your child will need one nut-free light snack<br />
plus a lunch. Remember to always send your kids with clean indoor shoes so they can<br />
participate in all the fun activities planned for them!<br />
