UCC Nursery School |
PROGRAM
Our Nursery School programs provide a safe and nurturing environment that promotes the physical, social, emotional and intellectual development of each child. This is accomplished through a variety of activities and experiences appropriate to each child's developmental stage.
Learning takes place as children touch, manipulate, and experiment with a variety of materials and interact with teachers and classmates. Creative expression is encouraged with emphasis placed on the process, not necessarily the product. All activities include (as a goal) the development of self-esteem and mutual respect.
Field trips and classroom visitors expand the children's knowledge of their world. A snack is provided by the parents each school day, and children are sometimes encouraged to help with preparation of the snack.
An outdoor, fenced-in play area with play equipment is provided.
The playground was rennovated in 1998 and is accessible to those with special
needs. The wooded area behind the church is used for nature walks and gardening.
Outdoor activities are planned daily, weather permitting.
SCHOOL POLICIES
