The primary assumption of the Kindergarten program is that learning is meaningful and long-lasting when it is based on a child's experiences, and when it arises from that which the child can understand. Our Kindergarten children are provided with opportunities to observe their world, gather information, and formulate conclusions in all academic disciplines.
The first year at Trinity is a crucial one in building self-confidence, independence and responsibility. Forming friendships, dealing with a variety of social situations, and discovering the joy and excitement of learning in a challenging but nurturing environment, are primary goals. Although a large body of measurable skills is acquired in Kindergarten, it is important to note that less tangible achievements are of equal value. Children grow in their commitment to tasks, learn to work independently, and learn to respect and appreciate the ideas of others. Not incidentally, they learn to navigate their way through the school with assurance.
