The philosophy that drives our classroom design and curriculum at First Church Nursery School is an understanding that young children learn best by doing. Play is the work of children. As they interact with classroom materials, nature, other children and adults, they begin to make sense of their world and build confidence in their abilities. Curriculum: The goal of our curriculum is to help children become enthusiastic learners. Through hands-on learning centers and open-ended activities, we encourage children to be active and creative explorers as well as independent, self-confident, and inquisitive. An emphasis is placed on introducing children to quality literature and developing a love of reading.
