Kindergarten Program Calgary: 5-6 years

Available at all of our locations in Calgary, Strathmore and in Saskatoon, Fueling Brains Academy’s Kindergarten program is uniquely based on their individual stage of development, and not simply on age group. Between the ages of 3 to 6 years old, children are capable of retaining extensive information and Fueling Brains Academy’s programs help them to begin to truly understand early numeracy, literacy and science concepts.

Fueling Brains Academy’s Kindergarten program focuses on whole child development.

In our Kindergarten program, children continue with the 3-in-1 curriculum and engage in additional learning experiences. Fueling Brains Academy’s Kindergarten offers 1000 hours of programming, versus 500 hours offered by other public school Kindergarten programs. Our unique blend of brain development-focused programs ensure a smooth transition to Grade 1.

What We Teach?

Our approach to Kindergarten is different from other programs in 3 ways.

1. Leadership

At FBA, we celebrate all that Kindergarteners have achieved already in their educational journey. We recognize them as leaders, and we view them as mighty learners with powerful perspectives and abilities to shape the world around them. Our goal is to have leadership experiences with younger students at our campuses.

2. Working with citizens to co-construct the future

The influence of Kindergarten students in the classroom environment cannot be understated.  Children in our Kindergarten program are able to work closely with our teachers to determine their own learning projects, field trips, and special guest presentations.

3. Learning Assessments for individualized learning

Fueling Brains evaluates students’ performance and development 5 times throughout the year. Your child’s progress will be shared with you semi-annually throughout the year at our Parent-Teacher Interviews (PTIs) where you collaboratively review your child’s report card and progress. Checklists will be sent in between the official report card periods for you to engage in your child’s learning at home.

Enrolling your child in our kindergarten programs is easy. Here’s an overview of our enrollment process:

Scheduling

Our preschool and kindergarten programs play an integral role in developing the child’s independence and sense of responsibility.

During these developmental years, children begin to transition from being nappers to becoming non-nappers. Our classrooms accommodate both of these stages by providing separate rooms and individual schedules for each child.

Fueling Brains Academy offers three time options for you to choose from to accommodate the weekly schedule you desire for child care.

  • Preschool and Care hours (7:00 am to 5:30 pm at our Calgary schools and 6:45 am to 5:45 pm at our Strathmore location) give you the flexibility for full day care as well as benefiting from the extra programming that support our core curriculum hours. This schedule is available for  three or five days a week for your convenience. You are able to choose your days based on the space availability at your desired location.
Healthy nutrition for children

Nutrition

In our toddler program, we reflect cultural diversity to stimulate a broader palate, and our cooks use local produce whenever possible.

We provide a separate menu for children who are vegetarian, and attention to children with allergies is of high importance.
