Better Care, Better Children…
Building on the foundation laid at our Daycare, Regulus Preschool continues our vision of “Better Care, Better Children” by providing a seamless transition to more formalized, structured learning and development for your child.
Our Daycare and Preschool work hand-in-hand so your child can continue their learning and development while still mastering social and personal autonomy.
At Preschool we pursue learning achievements that are appropriate for young children and that provide the foundation for successful future learning experiences as Regulus would have it.
Learning expectations are given for six areas of learning – Personal and Social Development, Language, Mathematics, Science and Technology, Health and Physical Activity, and The Arts. Programs based on the learning expectations have taken into consideration the widest possible range of children’s life experiences and situations. We encourage diversity and integration in the classroom.
At Daycare and Preschool we believe that better care fosters better children.
The learning expectations outlined in this document represent the first steps in a continuum of programming from Preschool/Kindergarten through Primary/Elementary school. They describe learning achievements that are appropriate for young children and that provide the foundation for successful future learning experiences as Regulus would have it.

Regulus Childcare Services has the same expectations of all the parents who choose to partner with us in the development and education of their children. This has prompted us to put forth the following guidelines to assist in the smooth operation of the school as well as the smooth transition for the children.
- Pre-school times 9:00am – 2:30pm daily. We will accept children one hour earlier or later than those times for no additional cost. If however your child has extended care at daycare then this does not apply.
- Fees: one time registration fees are $500. Potty trained child, 9:00am – 2:30pm $1000/monthly. Extended care/not potty trained, 6:30am -5:30pm $1200/monthly.
- Parents are expected to escort their children into the reception area of the school and see them in and say goodbye in this area.
- They are expected to be in school uniform with all the necessary tools that we have asked you to provide for their learning.
- You can expect a calendar sheet on a monthly basis that will help us communicate any major events that would be taking place during that particular month.
- We will maintain a smaller size communication journal that will be used to send notes to families periodically. Parents are expected to initial any notes that are sent in the journal to indicate to us that you have read it.
- Gymnastics will take place at the school, Wednesdays from 12:45pm to 1:45pm $100/month.
- Games uniform of white t-shirt and shorts are to be worn on Wednesdays and Fridays.
- Parents are expected to pack lunch, snack, water and juice for their children so that they can easily feed themselves whatever is in their lunch boxes.
- Students are not expected to bring candy, corn curls, cheese balls, chewing gum or soda onto the compound for the purpose of consumption. We will be encouraging parents to help their children make healthy choices and thus consume healthier snacks. Eg, fruit, crackers, nuts, vegetable chips.
- There will be zero tolerance for fighting, hitting or biting other students. Parents will be asked to meet with the teacher to discuss how we can work together to discourage this behavior. Abuse of staff by parents will result in immediate dismissal.
- We will be introducing the children to ASL (American Sign Language) as part of their daily curriculum.
