Outdoor Preschool at Whitinsville Christian School
Our Outdoor Preschool program is an add-on for students enrolled in our five-day PK3 or PK4 classes, or may be offered as a stand-alone two-day program, if space allows. Children spend extended time in our Outdoor Ed Forest, where they engage in hands-on, active learning experiences that encourage exploration, creativity, problem-solving, cooperation, and confidence – all while developing a deeper appreciation for God’s creation. Spots in this program are limited, so please apply early.

All of our programs follow the Whitinsville Christian School calendar beginning in late August and ending in early June. Optional hot lunch and aftercare are available to preschool students.

Comprehensive Curriculum

Our curriculum encourages young children to explore God’s world, enjoy learning, and participate in Christian community. Each program has a distinct curriculum so students who participate in preschool for two or three years have a wide variety of learning opportunities.

Generally our curriculum is literature based and comprehensive including centers for math, science, literacy, worship, handwriting, dramatic play, sensory experiences, and art. The Educational Standards for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts are exceeded by the activities and offerings in both the P3 and P4 programs.

Goals for our preschool include:

  • Encourage a love for God and one another-learning to cooperate and be sensitive to the needs of others.
  • Develop a sense of wonder, appreciation, and excitement for learning about God and his creation.
  • Develop fine and gross motor skills.
  • Stimulate creativity.
  • Improve verbal, listening and perceptual skills.
