Daily Programs

Our educational philosophy is learning through play: where children naturally develop their social & cognitive skills, grow in emotional maturity, and gain the imagination & self-confidence they need to succeed in their later school lives.
Curzon Program
Curzon classes are held Monday to Friday, from 8:45 a.m. to 11:45 a.m., for 24 children 3-5 years-old.
  • Our "Pussycats" (3-4 year-olds) and "Owls" (4-5 year-olds) enjoy a safe and caring environment where play and learning go hand in hand.

Parents play a key role
Curzon is a co-operative preschool in which parental involvement is required. Parents play a key role in the running of the school by accepting the following shared responsibilities:
  • Duty Days: Approximately once every 5 weeks for Curzon & once every 10 weeks for Mini-Curzon, one parent will come in for the morning to assist the teachers. Duty Days are special days for the Duty Child. They have additional responsibilities, including Show & Tell, Calendar, and Bunny Circle. These can be attended by parents, grandparents or caregivers.
  • Participation in two  general meetings per year.
  • Responsible for one of our parent co-op jobs.
  • Support in school fundraising activities.
