Our Program

Children are grouped into classes by age, and class sizes are kept small. The three-year old classes are offered on Tuesday/Thursday or Monday/Wednesday/Friday. The four-year old classes are offered Monday/Wednesday/Friday or 5 days for the older four year old children and are designed to prepare the children to enter kindergarten.

During a typical morning at St. Edmund’s, each child is exposed to a variety of activities and opportunities. Arts and Crafts, exploration with manipulative toys, scissors and other tactile objects are used to develop fine motor skills. Large muscle coordination is enhanced through outside play on bikes and climbing equipment as well as through our interactive music program. Children have the opportunity to engage in dramatic play in both organized and informal settings during outdoor play and at thematic centers in the classroom. During instructional and free-choice time, teachers engage with the students as they dance, play instruments and learn new songs.

Most importantly, the children spend their morning in a warm, affirming atmosphere with experienced teachers who help them understand more about their world, their classmates and themselves.
