Christian Heritage
Nursery School
At Christian Heritage Nursery School, we are a learning through play community that is dedicated to training minds, inspiring hearts, and shaping character to equip our children for a life for passionate faith, pursuit of excellence and joyful service to the Lord Jesus Christ.
Start-Up Registration
We are tentatively opening in January (possibly sooner) as we are going through the licensing process now. We will be offering two age groups: Pre-K (3 - 4 year olds) and Kindergarten (5 - 6 year olds registered in kindergarten). These will be half day sessions that focus on preparing your children for kindergarten and/or enhancing their development through play-based learning.
Please note that because there is a waitlist for government funding, that the price per session will be higher than the government funding licensed nursery schools.
For the Pre-K, your child must be 3 years old by December 31 st , 2025, and be fully toilet trained.
For the Kindergarten, your child must be 5 years old by December 31 st , 2025, and be registered in kindergarten. This will be an afternoon program only! If your child goes to Kindergarten at CHS, they can join the lunch program from 11:45- 12:45 or go home for lunch.
Priority will be given to CHS Society Members and 4-year-olds going to kindergarten the next Fall.
Note: These are the approximate days that the centre will be closed, and no fees will be charged (Spring Break, Christmas Break, Holidays, Professional Development days and Snow days).
