Now offering Me and My Mate play group for waddlers and toddlers

OUR PHILOSOPHY: Each child is special and unique in his/her own individual way, and deserves to explore, experiment, and to enlarge his/her awareness and understanding of the world. The Glenville Cooperative Nursery School does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, or ethnic origin in administration of its educational or administrative policies.

OUR GOALS: At Glenville Cooperative Nursery School, we strive to create a nurturing, engaging, and creative environment that will provide our children with the most well-rounded experience possible. We aim to:

• Enhance a positive self-concept
• Encourage independence
• Stimulate intellectual, language, social, and emotional development
• Develop listening skills
• Encourage creativity & initiative
• Involve children in a variety of activities including art, science, literacy, music and movement
• Establish a positive attitude towards learning

THE COOPERATIVE APPROACH: A cooperative preschool means active involvement of all members. Parents take part in the actual running of the school as elected officers or committee members. Parents also attend general membership meetings.

Parents will also assist the teacher as 'Helper Parents' for an entire session. On those days, parents are responsible for providing the snack, helping to set up and clean up the days activities, and for assisting the children & teacher.

Participating in your child's school provides you with a unique opportunity to support and to contribute to your child's early school experience. It provides you with the opportunity to observe your child in group situations, and to make a connection between home and school.
