Learning Through Play
At Strawberry Vale Preschool, we believe children learn best through meaningful play. Every day is filled with opportunities to explore, imagine, create, and discover in an environment that encourages curiosity and confidence.
Through hands-on experiences, children develop the social, emotional, physical, and cognitive skills they need for lifelong learning. Whether they're building with blocks, creating artwork, exploring nature, conducting simple science experiments, singing songs, or engaging in imaginative play, each activity is thoughtfully designed to support their growth and development.
Our experienced Early Childhood Educator creates a safe, nurturing classroom where every child is encouraged to ask questions, solve problems, make friends, and become an independent learner. We celebrate each child's unique strengths while helping them build the confidence and skills needed for a successful transition to kindergarten.
At Strawberry Vale Preschool, learning isn't just preparation for school, it's an exciting adventure that inspires a lifelong love of learning.
Because when children are playing, they are learning.
All About The Fun
Our Programs
At Strawberry Vale Preschool, we offer nurturing, play-based programs for children ages 3 to 5 years in our historic Little Red Schoolhouse. Led by an experienced Early Childhood Educator Gail Atkins, each class is thoughtfully designed to foster confidence, curiosity, creativity, and a lifelong love of learning through hands-on exploration and meaningful play.
We offer age-appropriate programs for 3-year-olds and 4-year-olds, with small class sizes that allow every child to be known, supported, and encouraged as they grow socially, emotionally, physically, and academically. Through art, music, outdoor play, stories, science, sensory experiences, and imaginative play, children build friendships, independence, and the skills they need for a successful transition to kindergarten.
As a cooperative preschool, families are an important part of our community, working alongside our teacher to create a warm, welcoming environment where children and parents learn and grow together.
