Exploring through the senses
Shapes, colours, sizes, and textures become opportunities for discovery. Montessori materials and sensory play invite children to observe, compare, and explore at their own pace.
Developing language in French and English
Rhymes, stories, and interactive games enrich vocabulary. Everyday conversations help children express their needs and communicate with adults and classmates.
Moving and refining coordination
Drawing, painting, building, and movement activities develop coordination. Handling objects strengthens precise hand movements; physical activities build confidence in movement.
Doing things independently, with help when needed
Washing hands, putting materials away, and helping with dressing are important small steps. Child-accessible objects allow children to practise these routines with support.
Finding a place in the group
Sharing, respecting others, and expressing emotions develop gradually. A stable routine alternates guided activities, free play, and relaxation, with music, art, and movement.
Preparing for your first meeting
During your visit, tell the team about your child’s routines, the languages heard at home, and their needs. You can discuss joining the group and the transition to preschool.
Simple but varied discoveries
A puzzle, blocks, or a texture game offers several opportunities to learn: looking, grasping, trying, and adjusting a movement. Rhymes and stories support language, while movement develops coordination. These published examples show the balance between exploration, communication, and independence.
Connecting home and school
Before entry, prepare information about routines and languages. Explain what reassures your child and what they enjoy doing independently. Discuss welcome arrangements, daily routines, and support for first group experiences, without expecting every child to reach the same milestones at the same time.
