Strathcona Nursery School

Welcome to Strathcona Nursery School, located in the Strathcona Centre Community League Hall!

The program at Strathcona Nursery School is based on the theory that children learn through play. This recognizes that young children learn through active involvement and meaningful experimentation. It also recognizes early childhood as a period where children should be provided the opportunity to gain independence through initiative, creativity, decision-making and problem solving, all of which help them to develop the ability to relate to others and feel good about themselves. 

Our Mission

The focus of the nursery school is not on structure or academics, but on personal development and socialization. Activities are planned which allow the children to make choices, problem solve and be creative. Art activities are often open-ended and the children are free to create as they desire, emphasizing the process rather than the product and therefore fostering a sense of accomplishment and pride.

Mission Statement: Empowering our children to become mighty learners through play

Why Choose SNS?

Mixed-age Classes

We accept children aged 2.5 to 5 years. Younger kids aged 2.5 to 3 are encouraged to register on Tuesday and Thursday mornings, where they are supported with their peers to learn the routines of the classroom and become comfortable with being at school. Once they turn 3, they are invited to register for up to four sessions per week.

Diapers are okay!

Your child is not required to be fully comfortable using the toilet when they start at SNS. While we encourage listening to your body to tell you when it’s time to use the toilet (and we have a private, kid-size washroom area in the classroom), we are equipped to deal with diapers and accidents.

Flexible Schedule

With nine morning and afternoon sessions to choose from, it’s easy to find a schedule that works for your family. We run three terms each year, and expect families to commit to at least one full term. If space is available we are happy to register kids from all neighbourhoods in Edmonton during our open registration periods over the school year.
