Toddler Community (2-3 years)

For children aged 2 to 3 years old

A gentle first school experience that respects each child's own rhythm. In an environment adapted to their size, children explore, handle materials and gradually learn to carry out everyday tasks by themselves.

Supported with kindness, they develop their language, motor skills and self-confidence, in contact with both French and English.

Children in the Jardin des Graines classroom

Preschool (3-6 years)

For children aged 3 to 6 years old

The created environment allows the child to understand the world around them and develop their intellectual and motor skills at their own pace, autonomously. This fosters confidence and self-awareness, which are necessary for their future development and desire to learn.
