Queen’s Park Preschool offers a three-year-old program and a four-year-old program. Please note, children are enrolled in either an AM class or a PM class, not both. Our class times are:
Three Year Old Class:
Tuesday/Thursday morning class: 9:15am – 11:30am
Tuesday/ Thursday afternoon class: 12:15pm – 2:30pm
Four Year Old Class
Monday/ Wednesday/Friday morning class: 9:15am – 11:30am

All of our programs are quite similar in structure. A typical day at preschool includes:
Welcome Circle: The teachers welcome the children and share information about any special activities for the class session.
Free Play: During free play the children can explore the various areas and activities within the preschool.
Some of these activities might include:
- creative art activities
- large muscle play
- sand box
- water table play
- dressing up and pretend play in the two storey play house
- playdough
- science discoveries
- working with manipulatives such as blocks, cars, puzzles and trains
Circle Time: Teachers lead a group time (with lots of child participation) and share music and songs, stories, group games and have discussions on a variety of themes.
Snack Time: At snack time we sit together and share a healthy snack (Each family takes turns providing the snack).
Outdoor Play: We schedule outside time each day in the preschool’s fenced playground with lots of space to run, play, climb, explore, and use various types of outdoor play equipment.
