WELCOME TO OUR LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS
PRESCHOOL
Our Preschool program at GACCC provides a warm, nurturing, and engaging environment for children ages 2.5 to 4 years.
We believe early childhood is a time of curiosity, exploration, and growth. Through play-based learning and meaningful relationships, our educators support children in developing confidence, independence, and strong social skills.
Preschool at GACCC is a full-year, full-day program that offers consistency and structure for families. Children enjoy a balance of indoor and outdoor experiences, creative exploration, and opportunities for hands-on learning throughout the day. Nutritious morning and afternoon snacks, along with a catered lunch, are provided daily. Our air-conditioned classrooms help ensure a comfortable and welcoming environment year-round.
Our daily programming encourages creativity, problem-solving, language development, and cooperative play while fostering a sense of belonging within our centre community. We are proud to create a space where children feel safe, supported, and excited to learn each day.
KINDERGARTEN
Before & After / Summer
Our Kindergarten program supports children enrolled in Junior and Senior Kindergarten, providing a structured, nurturing, and engaging environment that complements their school day.
During the school year, the program operates as Before and After School care, offering a balanced routine that includes creative activities, outdoor play, and opportunities to unwind after a busy day at school. Our educators focus on building independence, strengthening peer relationships, and supporting emotional regulation. Children attending before and after care are provided with a nutritious morning snack and afternoon snack daily in our comfortable, air-conditioned spaces.
During the summer months, as well as on PA Days, March Break, and the Christmas/Winter Break, the Kindergarten program transitions to full-day care with themed programming, outdoor activities, and hands-on experiences that encourage exploration and growth. Children are provided with a morning snack, catered lunch, and afternoon snack each day.
Our air-conditioned rooms help ensure a comfortable and enjoyable environment throughout the day.
Kindergarten at GACCC is a year-round program designed to provide stability, connection, and continued development throughout
the seasons. Children transitioning from Kindergarten to School Age must complete School Age registration. Placement in the School Age program is subject to available space, licensing capacity, and staffing ratios.
