• Philosophy
We believe that each child is a unique creation of God.The WCH Preschool offers opportunities for social, emotional, intellectual, physical and spiritual growth. Our teachers are committed to the development of the whole child.
Recognizing that a preschooler's primary place of learning is in the home, our teachers consult with parents whenever necessary to ensure that we are doing what is best for each child. To strengthen and educate families, we communicate through monthly newsletters and scheduled conferences. We welcome parent involvement in the classroom.
Realizing a preschooler's development is best enhanced through play in a structured setting, the Preschool environment is age-appropriate with a secure and comfortable atmosphere. This Christ-centered climate enables each child to feel good about him/her self and God.
• Curriculum Guidelines
To ensure that our curriculum reflects high-quality, developmentally appropriate practices, the teachers of the Wesleyan Church of Hamburg Preschool rely on the position statement of the National Association for the Education of the Young Children (Adopted July 1996).
Our curriculum also reflects the Early Literacy Guidelines and the Preschool Planning Guidelines of the State Education Department of New York.
