Kindergarten

Children learn by doing and play is their work.  Kindergarten programs not only help prepare children for grade one, but also set a foundation for later school success.  Children learn how to interact with others and to see themselves as individuals and learners.  Bellevue Kindergarten follows the Alberta Education’s Kindergarten Statement to provide learner expectations in the seven learner areas:

  • Early Literacy
  • Early Numeracy
  • Citizenship & Identity
  • Environment & Community Awareness
  • Personal & Social Responsibility
  • Physical Skills & Well Being
  • Creative Expression
