From the Happy Hours Pre School
Happy Hours, a Pre-School Learning Alliance certified member, was founded in 1969 as an outgrowth of a joyful, enjoyable family environment. Happy Hours, in our opinion, need to meet the requirements of both parents and kids in the neighbourhood.
Children learn via play, first-hand experiences, and carefully designed activities as part of our structured curriculum, which is stimulating, balanced, and comprehensive. We encourage kids to become independent and finish jobs on their own.
Happy Hours gathers parental information about a child's progress and accomplishments and values two-way communication between staff and the home. Parent-staff meetings are regularly held at the preschool.
Happy Hours hires a Special Needs Co-ordinator one-on-one and accepts children with special needs. Please get in touch with us to talk about your specific needs.
An elected committee of parents oversees Happy Hours and plays a crucial role in fundraising and important decision-making. We're constantly seeking new members. Without a significant time commitment, it's an enjoyable way to get engaged in preschool life and assist your child's early years education.
