Registration
for the 2010-2011 school year begins in
December 2009
The Y’s Little Owl Nursery School operates
on the premise that children’s natural
curiosity and desire to make sense of their
world are used to motivate them to become
involved in learning activities. We
offer classes for two, three, and four year
old children. Our program is licensed by the
State of Connecticut, and accredited through
the National Association for the Education
of the Young Child (NAEYC).
Our program strives to develop the whole
child. The curriculum includes large
and small group activities and
self-exploration through guided free-play.
Teachers prepare the classroom environment
for the children to learn through active
discovery and interaction with adults, other
children, and classroom materials.
In addition, since our program is held in
the YMCA facility, children have the
opportunity to participate in Bouncing Bears
Explorative Gym, music class, and Y-Swim
Lessons as part of their nursery school
curriculum.
