Jr. Kindergarten
"Saplings"
ages 4 & 5
Every child is unique in their learning journey.
The Wymbin "Sankalpa" Program is our licensed childcare program that runs at our Inglewood studio location.
"Sankalpa" is an idea that is formed in your heart and mind. We believe in building the capacity of each unique student to be confident, capable, lifelong learners!
​
Our Saplings class is our Junior Kindergarten room. We recently updated the name from Pre-K to Jr. K as we feel this better reflects our class programming, our curriculum and intentions have remained. Our program at Wymbin follows the Government of Alberta FLIGHT curriculum in addition to being inspired by the Reggio Emilia philosophy. The program is complemented by yoga, mindfulness and nature exploration.

What parents are saying...
"What I love most about Wymbin is that I can feel in each interaction, how much Jenna, the owner and the preschool teachers truly LOVE kids. Having previously had my daughter in a Montessori school, I found the more open-ended exploration Wymbin offered a better balance to get her ready for Kindergarten with some structure, but still a lot of play and art."

“Sending your little one to school for the first time is intense. So many questions and worries. We consider Wymbin a miracle. Not only are the staff so authentically kind, professional and great communicators. The teachers are gentle and sweet and teach important skills like mindfulness, how to be a good citizen and holistic body movement. We loved our experience at Wymbin and would recommend it to anyone who thinks their child deserves something a little extra special.”
