Preschool Kindergarten Mother's Morning Out

Our Philosophy
The preschool and kindergarten years are the most significant in the development of children. It represents a time when learning is swift and curiosity is at its peak.

The mission of Honey MacCallum Christian Preschool & Kindergarten is to provide a safe, enjoyable Christian learning environment for young children.

We offer an opportunity to help children develop an awareness of the presence of God in their world: to present God as loving and forgiving and to introduce the church to preschoolers as a warm and inviting place where they can feel happy together.

In order for children to develop fully, they need to explore at their own pace in an atmosphere of security and love. Curiosity and wonder need to be stimulated to help build self-esteem. During this formative time, independence, creativity and thinking need to be encouraged within appropriate limits.

Above all, children with the help of caring, loving, trustworthy adults will come to know that God is loving, caring, and trustworthy.

Purpose & Goals
To grow in independence - To help children grow and develop as unique individuals, learning to do things themselves and making the right choices.

To learn to get along with others - Children need to learn to work together, and learn how to share.

To develop self control and self discipline - Children need to know there is appropriate behavior in dealing with each other, stressing good manners.

To encourage curiosity, wonder and self esteem - Teachers need to listen to children, respect their needs and compliment them sincerely, thereby encouraging them to feel good about themselves.

To nurture faith - Children need the help of adults to develop an awareness of the presence of God in themselves and others, and everywhere in the world.

To form healthy relationships - Children need to form healthy relationships by learning about family, self, and friends.
