It's an unique program to involve parents & children learning together at the preschool level. Learning through play (especially outdoor in the woods) is the highlight for my child. I attend parent education workshops that constantly help and guide me in my parenting at home and in the preschool. Easter Egg hunt is so much fun - we found this wonderful place through this community event led by the alumni parents! Thanks Ms. Lynda for guiding my child to be creative, confident & active!Read more
Montessori classrooms have a 3 year age range. Preschool classes consist of 3, 4, & 5 year-old children while our full day program has 4, 5, & 6 year-old children. Each classroom is furnished with beautiful, age-appropriate educational materials to which children are naturally drawn. The children receive individual lessons from teachers on how to work with these materials.
A little historyand Happy Days Playschool began operation in 1975. After moving several times, the school finally settled in 1989 at its current location on the grounds of Mundy Road Elementary School. Considerable time, energy, and funds have been spent over the years on such projects as the outside play structure, storage shed, landscaping and parking lot construction. These projects have improved our school's looks and function. A recent Government Grant has enabled us to renovate and improve the classroom interior. It is a bright, modern, welcoming classroom for the children.
