SENIOR KINDERGARTEN
We offer a full 10-month school year (September to June) Alberta Education approved, funded program for children who will turn five on or before December 31st of their kindergarten year.
JUNIOR KINDERGARTEN
Typical Kindergarten children must turn 5 by December 31st in the year they attend. For Junior Kindergarten, children must turn 5 between January 1st and April 30th in the year they attend to be eligible, and they will have to pay tuition for the year as Alberta Education funding does not cover Junior Kindergarten (please contact our Program Coordinator for more information regarding tuition fees for Junior Kindergarten). Both Jr. and Sr. Kindergarteners will attend class together with the JK’s having age appropriate learner expectations and additional support as needed. We have limited JK spaces, however, feel free to spread the word if you know of anyone who has a kiddo that is ready for a bit more of a challenge but not yet old enough to attend Kindergarten.
