Wilder-Garten

5 - 6 years

 

Wilder-Garten is a Reggio-Emilia inspired Kindergarten Enrichment program for children age 5-6 (please note: children must be at least 5 years old as of December 31 of the year they have started Kindergarten).  Our Wilder-Garten program is aimed at exposing children to experiences in nature to help them grow, develop and learn through an inquiry-based approach. Our curriculum is guided by Flight: Alberta’s Early Learning and Care Framework and organically stems from children’s unique questions and interests. We focus on a holistic approach to teaching and learning that is developmentally appropriate and helps to prepare children for Grade 1.
