Our Philosophy

We are dedicated to fostering the comprehensive development of each child, nuturing the whole child, and embracing a holistic approach to learning. We support children in all areas of development: socially, emotionally, physically, and academically. We prioritize the significance of nature and the outdoors, providing ample space for children to play and explore.

Our preschool is located in a park-like setting in the heart of Granite Bay. We have multiple outdoor learning spaces, as well as a spacious playground for children to develop their large motor skills. Our classrooms are thoughtfully designed with intention and purpose, providing a variety of age appropriate materials and resources for our students. We teach multiple subjects including literacy, mathematics, arts, science, gardening, animal care, and physical education. Our staff is highly qualified and experienced in early childhood education.

We are committed to providing a supportive learning environment where children feel safe and secure. We are confident that your child will have a wonderful experience at Three Acres Preschool. We look forward to getting to know you and your child.

Why a Nature Inspired Preschool?

Research has shown the many benefits of nature-based early childhood education. These include supporting creativity and problem solving, enhancing cognitive abilities, increasing physical activity, improving social relationships, and supporting child development. Our class day is structured to allow for child-driven exploration of outdoor spaces in order to discover, learn, and reflect.

As the world evolves, it is crucial for children to learn how to adapt. Nature, with its constant transformations, serves as an excellent mentor for creative problem-solving. Outdoor exploration and play offer unique physical development opportunities that indoor activities cannot replicate. Through interactions with peers, teachers, and their surroundings, children cultivate social and emotional skills that will benefit them throughout their lives.
