• EXCITING NEWS!! The child care subsidy income thresholds has been increased to $180,000 to benefit more families. Unique Kids Preschool is designated as a licensed facility-based child care program through the Alberta Child Care Subsidy Program. For further information regarding this program and its eligibility criteria, check out https://www.alberta.ca/child-care-subsidy.aspx.
• In addition to the above mentioned child care subsidy, the Province of Alberta's Children's Services is providing a $75 Affordability Grant payment per month to further lower preschool fees for all parents irrespective of family income. This $75 grant is already deducted from the preschool fees (see Registration/Fees tab).
• 2022/23 Registration is ongoing. Registration application can be found under the registration tab
• For registration or any other information, please contact Mona at 403-239-8311 or by email to set-up an appointment.
• Come and take a peek at our bright and newly renovated space, new furniture and toys.
• What a wonderful month it has been! The children are becoming familiar with their new routines. They are learning to take turns with their classmates and exploring the different centres. We are so glad to see many smiling faces each day.
• The Mon/Wed/Friday class had the opportunity to participate in a field trip to the Crowfoot Library. The kids were engaged in a variety of fingerplays and even had the chance to tour and explore the library. We felt happy to see them learning and having fun.
• A librarian visited our Tues/Thurs class with a traveling library to complement themes discussed through stories and flannel boards. Kids always have wonderful time listening to stories and interacting with the librarian.

Upcoming Events for Families of Unique Kids:

Our Christmas programs will be held in each class on the last day of preschool before winter break. Our preschoolers are excited to learn some Christmas and winter time songs for this wonderful time of the year! Kids come to school at regular class time.

Children will be receiving gifts from the preschool and will take home their craft they worked on for this season.

Ho! Ho! Ho! Spread the Holiday Cheer!
