This time of year we like to contact the families of the students who have a birthday on the cusp of being able to go to Kindergarten.

Alberta Education requires all Kindergarten students to turn five years old on or before December 31st of the school year they attend Kindergarten, but they can't be 6 years old on their first day of Kindergarten.

Dr. Seuss’ birthday may be on March 2, but at the Chestermere Playschool, we’re celebrating all month long! We’re diving into the wacky and wonderful world of Dr. Seuss with some of our favorite books and hands-on activities inspired by his imaginative stories.

The Chestermere-Strathmore Family Resource Network (FRN) plays a vital role in supporting families within the Chestermere and Strathmore communities. This network is part of a province-wide initiative in Alberta, aimed at providing comprehensive services and resources to families, children, and youth.
