Ganon Preschool

18 months until 5 years old

http://jccottawa.com/ganon/

The Ganon preschool is a part of the Soloway Jewish Community Centre and has access to all of its stellar facilities including a full size gymnasium, indoor salt water pool and social halls for holiday celebrations.  We are licensed by the ministry of education for children 18 months until 5 years old.

Ganon preschool is a great introduction to school and Jewish life.  It is a place to let your child’s creativity shine, have plenty of opportunities for outdoor learning, learn about Jewish traditions and holidays and get an introduction to the French and Hebrew languages.  At Ganon Preschool we instill a lifelong love of learning in children and give them the foundation to do good deeds, build community and give back and be kind to others.

The philosophy of the Ganon Preschool is that children learn through play. Play nourishes every aspect of children’s development – it forms the foundation of intellectual, social, physical and emotional skills necessary for success in school and in life. Play “paves the way for learning.

Ganon is part of the Canada-wide Early Learning and Child Care (CWELCC) system and is part of the daycare subsidy program.

Torah Day School of Ottawa

Pre-K (3-4 year olds)

http://torahday.ca

The Torah Day School Pre-Kindergarten (Pre-K) program instills a love of Yiddishkeit (Judaisim) through hands on, experiential learning. We educate children in a creative, supportive and warm Jewish environment, where Judaism is not just a subject, but a way of life.

As children progress from the pre-k program into the main kindergarten program, they learn about Shabbos, Jewish holidays, the Torah, doing mitzvos and davening.  In addition to learning to read and write in English, the children learn the Aleph-Beis and begin their French language education. The general studies program introduces basic math skills and units on the weather, the world around them, science and the animal kingdom. Children in Torah Day’s pre-k love school and love being Jewish!
