Preschool Classes

for children ages 2 to 5

We believe children learn best through play and social interactions during their early childhood years. Through a wide variety of hands-on activities, such as music and movement, process art, dress up and dramatic play, gross motor play, stories, and more, children are exposed to a wide variety of concepts and skills.

 

All of our Calvary Preschool classes

run from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
