Britannia Preschool

September Gradual Entry Schedule

As we recognize how important it is for young children to feel comfortable and safe while at the Preschool, we provide a Gradual Entry during the first month.

This Gradual Entry helps the children familiarize themselves with the play centres, routines of the day, their play mates and the teachers. We welcome parents or caregivers to stay with their children to help them settle in and feel comfortable with the transition. The teachers recognize how difficult it can be for some children to separate from the parents or caregivers and vice versa. Returning children are able to re-settle into their new classes and meet new friends.

Before the 9 of September teachers are preparing for the new school year. We want to ensure the classroom meets licensing and safety requirements. This means that we check the equipment, prepare first aid supplies, review children’s files, list and post any medical or allergy requirements and prepare emergency contact folders for evacuations or field trip outings. We also prepare the room’s bulletin boards, clean and sanitize the playroom toys and supplies, set-up the various play centres and purchase the necessary supplies. It is also our time to prepare the curriculum plan for our circle time and contact other professionals involved with our Preschool. We believe it is important to have the Preschool ready to receive all of your wonderful children.

Enjoy the warmth of the sun and the grass under your feet. All classes are full of wonderful, bright Preschoolers. We are looking forward to September!
