As a new adventure begins for students entering Kindergarten, Mrs. Gader feels it is important to make the transition from home to school for each student by forming a partnership with parents. The Kindergarten class of 07-08 has 19 enthusiastic students. There is also one classroom assistant. The Bible is integrated into all aspects of the students learning and eac day is filled with activites such as circle time, centres, games, music, crafts, sharing time, stories, and fine motor skills. Field trips are seen as a way to reinforce concepts as well as, introduce students to new and exciting things in God's wonderful world. In Kindergarten there is extra support for learning, which includes special needs programming, early literacy assistance and a speech pathologist.
