In Kindergarten we try to provide activities to meet the needs of all our students. We take the total child into account. We learn by exploring and using all of our senses. Our learning is also varied from quiet to movement activities. We are always busy and on the go! We recognize that play is the natural way many children learn. We also try to instill a positive self concept. We encourage children to socialize at Sangster with peers, to share ideas and materials, follow rules, and respect each other as individuals.
