Program Statement
Our program implements and adjusts practices that abide by the Foundations for Learning to support children’s sense of belonging and well-being, as well as engagement and expression.
The following goals will guide our program in our pursuit of positive experiences and outcome for children and families:
Parent Handbook
The Parent Handbook is available to every family registered in Dundas Valley Co-operative Preschool and also to new families wanting to learn more about our preschool’s philosophy, hours of operation, fees, and how we monitor our staff and duty volunteers to ensure your child is well-cared for while they attend the preschool. Details on certain policies also included.
Registration & Enrollment
The Dundas Valley Cooperative Preschool runs from Monday to Thursday from 8:30am-12:30pm, September to June.
We currently have spots available for the 2024/2025 school year beginning September 2024. For inquiries regarding mid-year enrolment during the current school year, please contact our membership coordinator.
Duty Volunteer FAQs
A Duty Volunteer (DV) is a parent or family designate that volunteers their time to provide support in the classroom. They assist the Teacher and children in the classroom as needed (creative and active play, conflict resolution, etc.),
help children at snack time, putting on coats when it is time to leave, etc.
For the days you have been scheduled as the Duty Volunteer, you will be asked to arrive for 8:20am to get situated before the children arrive at 8:30am.
