Play Is The Work Of Children

The Pre K program at Westbury Friends School is a wonderful mix of academic learning that is both challenging and developmentally appropriate and social experiences whereby students gain competence and confidence. The classroom offers multiple opportunities for exploration and discovery through varied hands-on interest areas. These learning activities allow for independent pursuits and/or group interaction.

The social, physical, intellectual, creative, emotional, and spiritual development of each child is an integral part of the overall program, as children grow and achieve according to their levels, strengths and abilities.

The ambience in the classroom provides a solid framework within which the students are nurtured and inspired toward a lifetime love of learning, with an eye toward a smooth transition into Kindergarten and its somewhat more structured learning environment.
