TIS Preschool - At a Glance
I am impressed with the TIS preschool teachers for their expertise in child development and best practices in early childhood education. TIS is a nurturing environment which supports the academic, social and emotional development of each unique child. My children are excited to come to school each day. TIS has inspired them to love learning.

Starting a new routine is a big step for our two-year-olds. Each child is adjusting at their own pace, and we are gently supporting them as they become familiar with their new surroundings. While morning goodbyes can sometimes bring big feelings, the children are gradually finding comfort in the classroom, connecting with their teachers, and beginning to explore and enjoy their time at school.

Our little learners have been busy exploring their new classrooms, getting to know their teachers and classmates, and becoming more comfortable with their daily routines. There has been so much to discover and enjoy! From wonderfully messy art and beach-ball fun in PE to singing and dancing in Music and Exploration.

Our week has been focused on collaborating together as a class. These first days are all about developing our class culture and learning to be a class team. The class developed their class agreement and each morning we are working on our affirmations of "I am smart, I am strong, I am kind and I am amazing!"
