A day in our program at Village Square Leisure Centre

A typical day in our preschool program includes free play, circle time, art/science time, physical activity time and snack time.

Free play time

Our tabletop play centres and other materials help your child explore their imagination, learn cooperation, and practice shapes, sizes, colors, numbers, language and motor skills.

Art/science time

This tactile learning experience — whether forming a blob of dough or feeling paint on their fingers — allows children to expand their creativity, improve their hand-eye coordination and exercise their fine motor skills.

Physical activity time

Preschoolers will develop the fundamental movement skills that all children need, such as running, hopping, throwing, catching and jumping. Spending time in our indoor jungle gym play structure or gymnasium increases their physical literacy and helps lead them to lifelong participation in physical activity.

Snack time

Our nut-free snack time promotes healthy eating by encouraging parents to send a small nutritious food item and water bottle with their preschooler each day.

Safety and supervision

The safety of our preschoolers is our top priority. Staff supervision and instruction are provided in all programs. 

Our staff are selected based on experience, leadership skills and their ability to relate to children. Staff are Intermediate First Aid and CPR certified and are trained in the High Five Principles of Healthy Child Development.

Children with disabilities are welcome

Our programs welcome children with disabilities. Please make us aware of any disabilities or behavioural needs during registration. It's the parent or guardian’s responsibility to find an aid for children with disabilities when required.
