The Kindergarten Experience
Kindergarten is one of the most magical years of a student’s time at St. Thomas’s! Whether they are digging in the garden, playing in the mud kitchen, creating with beautiful junk, observing classroom pets, or participating in the annual tree and trout class projects – our students approach each day with unyielding enthusiasm and positivity.
What Happens When a Child is Truly Known
At St. Thomas’s, our small size allows teachers to know their students deeply: what makes them curious, what challenges them, what makes them laugh, and where they might surprise themselves next.
When children know they belong, they have the freedom to take risks, try new things, and grow. That is the power of being known.
