Aldersgate Preschool
Our mission is to nurture children in the knowledge and love of God and to surround them with steadfast love.
Our purpose is to develop the entire child - socially, spiritually, intellectually, physically and emotionally. Aldersgate Preschool provides developmentally appropriate experiences for all children in a Christian environment which enables each one to achieve his/her full potential as an individual and in relationships with others. As part of Aldersgate UMC, Preschool families are always welcome to attend the abundant opportunities for Christian nurture and fellowship offered by the church.
Our curriculum includes both free play and guided activities. Language, sensory, motor, and perceptual skills are developed through child-centered and teacher-directed activities with an atmosphere conducive for learning. Rather than religion being a separate part of the curriculum, it is taught through the teacher’s loving example, through songs and stories, and thankfulness for God’s love and grace for us.
