Program Plans

At LLL Preschool, we believe that play is truly children's work. We have designed our program to best meet the demands of such work. Our daily schedule of activities remains flexible, and is enhanced by various enrichment activities we offer.

Enrichment Activities

We offer multiple enrichment activities for the children, including nature walks on the West Parish grounds, occasional music and yoga classes, and monthly visits from Carrie Milardo of Fit for Fun. These age-appropriate activities greatly enhance the children's time at school, while still maintaining the stability and routine needed during the preschool age.

Lunch Bunch

We offer our students an opportunity to enjoy lunch at school when the morning session ends and before the afternoon session begins. Lunch Bunch is now offered two days/week, on Tuesday and Friday.

There are two Lunch Bunch teachers supervising the meal time, which is followed by unstructured play time with friends. Lunch Bunch is an optional program, and for the sake of all students, must be nut-free.

Lunch Bunch hours and fee information are as follows:

  Lunch Bunch
Hours: 11:15am-12:45pm
Fee: $19.00/session

Extended Learning

For those students and families looking for more learning opportunities and/or a longer day, LLL Preschool offers Extended Learning options.  Our Extended Learning program offers a project-based curriculum, where up to 8 students will have the opportunity to investigate topics in art, science, literature and nature.

Two teachers lead the Exteneded Learning program. The daily format also includes lunch. Please note that LLL Preschool is a nut-free school.
