Parent-Child Preschool Program
Amber Trails Community School offers FREE preschool programs for parents/caregivers and their children from birth to age six who live in the Amber Trails School catchment area to enjoy together! If you have preschoolers at home, we hope you will join us at our free preschool programs.
WHAT is parent/child preschool programming?
Parent/child preschool programs are for you and your child (0-6 years) to be part of a learning environment together in our school. It is a wonderful opportunity for parents/adult caregivers to play and learn together with their child and meet other families in our community!
WHAT is the role of the parent/adult caregiver?
The role of the parent/adult caregiver is to actively participate with their child at all times during playtime, art activities, clean up and story time and to enjoy this time with their child.
HOW do I register my child for parent/child preschool programs?
Registration for the Fall Session (October to December) of our preschool programs has now closed & we are not accepting anymore registrations at this time.
We received over 125 registrations. Thank you for your interest in our preschool programs at Amber Trails School!
Due to the high number of registrations, we can only register families who live in the Amber Trails School catchment area.
During the week beginning Monday September 28, all families who submitted an online registration form will receive an email as follows:
Families who live in the Amber Trails School catchment area will receive an email which will confirm their ONE program day/time to attend each week OR if they are on the waiting list.
Families who live in a different school catchment area will receive an email with information about preschool programs at their catchment school.
Thank you,
Ms Colleen
WHY are parent/child preschool programs right for your family?
- Children and parents/caregivers have a fun time playing together and participating in quality learning activities.
- Children may meet future classmates, become comfortable in their new school environment and share experiences that are similar to ones they will have in kindergarten.
- Attending parent/child preschool programs strengthens the school/family partnership by giving children the opportunity to be a part of the school community before they attend kindergarten.
- The transition to kindergarten is eased as school is already a familiar and welcoming place. Please Remember:
- Parking: Please park along Templeton Avenue or a surrounding street. Parking is not available in the parking lot or front loop.
- Shoes: Please bring indoor shoes. Adults and children must have footwear on at all times, in case of a fire drill.
