Welcome to Ready, Set, Go! Preschool
We are excited to confirm that Ready, Set, Go! Preschool will reopen Fall of 2020 at all three locations!
Ready, Set, Go! (RSG) is a play-based, emergent curriculum preschool designed for children ages 3-5. Our teachers are excited to have your child in the class! It is our hope that each child will have fun while learning and growing, whether they are experiencing preschool for the first time, or getting ready for kindergarten.
The program goals at Ready Set Go! are:
- To encourage learning through play
- To offer children choices within a safe classroom environment
- To encourage self-esteem, intellectual, physical, and emotional growth and social development, creativity, independence and good communication skills
- To prepare your child for kindergarten and success in school with the help of YOU, their most important teacher
RSG helps each child to be the best student that they can be. Our program will offer your child a safe and stimulating learning experience, involving a great deal of both indoor and outdoor play. Your child will have fun learning in a variety of ways – through play and exploration, through books and sensory experiences, through listening and creating, while our team will focus on building relationships and social emotional learning . Each day will provide opportunities for new experiences!
To register at any of the three location, please call our main line at 403-279-9981 or email earlyeducation@bgcc.ab.ca. All children must be a minimum of three years old and fully potty trained.
