Discover & grow through play
NVRC operates three preschools. Our focus is on preparing your child for kindergarten in a positive learning environment that creates unforgettable memories, and builds self-confidence and life skills.
Inspired by BC’s Early Learning Framework, we see children as strong, capable and full of potential, and recognize the important role families play in children’s well-being and learning. Our preschools are led by early childhood educators and have a staff-to-child ratio of 1:10 with a limit of 20 children per class.
Philosophy
Our holistic approach and play-based program fosters children’s physical, emotional, social, creative and intellectual growth. It helps build a sense of wellbeing, belonging, and social responsibility. Based on children’s interests and curiosity for learning, activities encourage exploration and experimentation with a variety of materials. These experiences are designed to foster a deeper understanding of the world we live in. Come play with us in our welcoming and nurturing environment.
