Come Learn With Us!

Starting school is an exciting time. Our schools provide a rich learning environment for all children to learn and grow.

In the Kindergarten program, your child will develop their skills and abilities through inquiry and intentional play-based learning that includes math, science and literacy. Teachers and early childhood educators plan learning experiences where children are actively engaged in learning and thinking creatively.

Children who will be four by December 31, 2025, can start Junior Kindergarten in September 2025.

Learn more about Kindergarten at the TDSB, Before- and After-School Programs and Extended Day Programs.
