Rocking Horse Day Care and Kindergarten
 

A Learning Environment

3 children learningWhat a child retains in high school has a lot to do with what he picks up when he is three. Top educators believe children do their most important learning before the age of five. It is a time for developing new relationships with the world and the people in it - for exploring, becoming independent, and meeting a whole range of new challenges. In addition to big hearts, we make sure our teachers possess training in early childhood education. We also invest in computers and a whole range of fun materials and activities that enhance every stage of development.

Children learn differently from adults. They need hands-on, real world experiences for true insight to occur. At the Rocking Horse Day Care Centre & Kindergarten, children learn by doing. Through play, your child's natural curiosity and love of learning are actively engaged.

Your child has only one childhood. No one respects this simple truth more than the staff at the Rocking Horse Day Care Centre & Kindergarten.

French Language Program

We believe that in a bilingual country such as Canada, an early French education will give your child an advantage and help your child develop a skill for learning new languages.

We offer a French program, which combines learning with play, games and music. Our French teachers are selected based on their teaching background and their high command of the French Language. By the time your child is ready to go to school, he or she will have valuable language skills, which will help his or her life long learning voyage.

Learning the French and English words to songs is also a great way to improve memory and language skills. Parents always enjoy the creative special occasion performances at our centre!
