Our Mission

Our Goals

2. To encourage each child to realize that everyone is special, with rights and feelings.
3. To provide each child the opportunity to gain self confidence by making independent choices in meaningful play and learning activities that engage the child’s curiosity.
4. To stimulate large muscle skills through physical activities and group games, and to develop fine motor skills and hand/eye coordination through art projects and using writing utensils.
5. To instill a love of learning through early literacy and listening skills by reading books, experience stories, poetry, rhyming activities and music.

Who We Are

The Maple Grove Preschool is sponsored by Maple Grove Mennonite Church as an expression for its concern for the Christian nurture of young children. Meaningful play is at the heart of all learning at the preschool. We believe young children master skills, solve problems, discover new concepts and learn how to get along with others while playing.

Our Program

We offer classes for children ages 2 ½ to 6 years. Maple Grove Preschool provides children opportunities for imaginative play, art, and music, math and science, large and fine motor skill development, social and spiritual growth. Our program includes a balance of structured and self-directed activities. Children are encouraged in their strengths, and recognized for their uniqueness. We hope to establish in each child a positive self image, a love of learning and an ability to express ideas and emotions in a positive way. Above all, we teach our children to honor and respect one another and all of God’s creation.
