Inlcudes the Early Learning Center (ELC), Kinderarts, and Out of School Care (OSC) and provides enriched care and learning for children ages 12 months to 12 years.
Our TT ELC play-based programs are flexible, stimulating, fun, and strives to meet the needs of the children as individuals and as a group. We address the intellectual and cognitive development, and the emotional, social and physical needs of the children. Throughout the day, children have opportunities for structured group activities, as well as free time to choose from a variety of play centers. Children participate in physical activities each day, either outside or in the gym.
All TT ELC programs incorporate Judaism as an integrated part of everyday life via the use of Hebrew language, celebration of Shabbat, holidays, customs, traditions, songs and dance.
Early Learning Centre (Ages 1-5 years) 7:00 am to 5:45 pm
The ELC is a play-based center that offers childcare and learning in a safe, nurturing and inclusive environment. Our program is aligned with Alberta's Early Learning and Care Framework (Flight). Three to five-year olds benefit from an hour of Hebrew language play-based activities per day.
Kinderarts (Kindergarten age) 11:35 am - 3:35 pm
Our Kinderarts program complements the half-day Kindergarten, through Hebrew immersion, creative play, arts and crafts, science experiments, music, movement, and special events. We subscribe to a learn-through-play philosophy that fosters an environment that encourages self-expression, creativity, and success.
Out of School Care (KG-Gr. 6) 7:00 AM - 5:45 PM
Our program provides before and after school care and operates during TT PD days and holidays (e.g., winter and Passover break). We build positive relationships through engaging activities, in order to build opportunities for collaboration with both peers and adults.
