8:00-9:00 Early Drop-Off

We offer early drop-off for families that need it. During this time, children will have the opportunity for free-play with many of our engaging toys, including a sensory table and colouring center.

9:00-9:20 Drop-Off

Children will hang up their backpacks, switch their shoes, and put their lunch kits and water bottles in their cubbies. Once these tasks have been completed, they begin their day with free play.

9:20-9:45 Gathering Time

We begin our morning by gathering together. This is where we pray to start our day, check in with each child, go through a devotional, remind the children of our daily schedule and provide a quick daily lesson (focusing on the topic of the week).

9:45-10:00 Snack Time

Children will be encouraged to eat a healthy snack, brought from home.

10:00-10:15 Dance Party

Everyone will dance together to songs from our monthly playlist featuring songs focused on our monthly themes.

10:15-11:30 Centers & Gym

Children will be divided into 2 groups (typically separated by youngest and oldest) and switch between centers and play time in the gym. During centers, children will have the opportunity to choose from a variety of educational games, sensory centers, and an art center. Children can choose to do them all or only the ones they are interested in. During gym time, children will get the opportunity to run, jump and play with toys and games that are specific to the gym.

11:30-11:45 Story Time

Children will wind down by listening to a teacher read story or a read-aloud.

11:45-12:30 Lunch

Children will pray and then eat their lunch. When they are finished and waiting for others to finish, they can engage in quiet play with several toy options or read books.

12:30-2:30 Outdoor Play & Free Play

Depending on the weather, children will get the opportunity to play outside at one of our community’s green spaces, at the playground, in our attached play area, or explore the nearby nature trail. Children will be divided into 2 groups (youngest and oldest) and switch between outside time and indoor free play. If the weather is not conducive to outdoor play, we will play inside, using the gym.

2:30-2:45 “Wind-Down” Time

Children will relax their bodies while listening to calming music. Educators may choose to also read a story during this time.

2:45-3:00 Snack

Children will have their last snack.

3:00-4:30 Free Play & Pick-up

Children will have the opportunity for free play or any of the engaging centers that our educators prepare. If the weather is ideal, we will head outside until pick-up.
