We believe that children are capable, curious, and full of potential.
At ProducKIDvity, we are proud to be a Reggio Emilia-inspired school. We value the importance of documentation and observation as key components of our teaching approach.
By carefully observing and documenting children's interests, ideas, and interactions, we are able to shape our curriculum around their unique needs and passions.
Our curriculum emerges from the interests and inquiries of the children.
Our curriculum is not built in a box, but rather, develops with the interests of our children. This approach allows us to create a learning environment that is engaging, relevant, and meaningful to each child. We believe that this child-centered approach not only fosters a love for learning but also helps children develop critical thinking skills, creativity, and a strong sense of self.
Our curriculum is also aligned with the BC Early Learning Framework, ensuring that our practices meet the standards and expectations set forth by the province. By integrating the principles of Reggio Emilia with the BC Early Learning Framework, we strive to provide a holistic and enriching educational experience for every child at ProducKIDvity.
Early Learning Programming
-
Infants and Toddlers
ProducKIDvity provides childcare for children from birth up until three years of age in our Infant Toddler classrooms. These rooms are staffed by specialized educators and maintain smaller classroom ratios of a maximum of 12 students with an educator for every four children.
-
Pre-School
Our Pre-School programs provide an enriching environment for children aged three to school age. Led by dedicated Early Childhood Educators, our pre-school classes run in two, 3-hour sessions each day. This flexible schedule allows children to engage in a variety of activities that foster their academic, social, and emotional development.
-
Junior Kindergarten
Our Junior Kindergarten programs are for our three to five year old students. These classes are lead by Early Childhood Educators and the programming is designed to prepare children for the transition to formal schooling and lay a strong foundation for their future academic, social, and emotional development. Junior Kindergarten has children in our care for an entire day, versus pre-school having three hour sessions.
