If your child is not yet 3, you may still submit an application; your child will be placed on our Under Three Waitlist. If a placement is available when your child turns 3, you will be contacted. If demand for our classes allow, you may be offered the choice to pay the monthly tuition fee in order to hold a spot until your child is old enough to attend.
Wait List

AFFORDABILITY GRANT
Our fees reflect the $75 per month Government of Alberta Affordability Grant that the preschool will receive for each student per month. When students register in two programs to attend 5 days per week, the Government will provide only one $75 payment per month for each child, not for each program enrolled in.
classroom visits
Classroom Visits: We welcome visitors by appointment. Visits can be scheduled during regular class times during the school year, or at another time convenient for you that can be arranged with the administrator.
