2-Year-Old Programs
Overview
At Nottinghill we believe that young children learn best while doing what they do best: playing and having fun. We foster learning through play and age appropriate exploration. We provide children with a variety of play areas and activities to support their learning, complimented by daily circle time. These programs are a great introduction to “school” and allow young children to explore their independence.
Classes run from September to June.
Please note: Program offering and class sizes are subject to change based on COVID-19 re-opening guidelines.
