Mission
The mission of the Mes Amis Preschool program is to provide a structured and creative French Immersion learning environment for children aged 3 and 4 to promote their physical, intellectual, social, and emotional growth through active participation in individual and group activities, selection of materials, and sharing of ideas and interests within a safe and welcoming space.

French and English language skills are developed throughout the year, with exposure to language through activities, stories, and song.
Cognitive
Students will ask questions and discover how things work through inquiry-based activities, puzzles, and problem solving.
Social Emotional
Social and Emotional skills are developed through play, sharing, listening, and self-discovery in a low-stress, structured environment
Physical
Team sports, cooperative games, and physical activity help build fine and gross motor skills as well as hand-eye coordination.
