St. Andrew Presbyterian Church, Groton CT

"Saint Andrew Presbyterian Church Preschool values the whole child, which include the social, emotional, physical, intellectual and spiritual development of every child and seeks to offer a safe environment to encourage curiosity, adventure and a love for learning."

The most natural way a child learns is through play. Children learn by doing, they strive to become independent and self-directed in their learning.

Our focus is based on the whole child, which includes a variety of learning experiences to develop the spiritual, social, emotional, physical and intellectual development of every child as well as learning to develop a sense of community.
We want each child to feel good about who they are and to be able to make independent choices which fosters positive self-esteem and self-confidence.
We believe that each child is unique and special individual with varying interest, needs and abilities.
We strive to prepare an environment, which will help children develop to their fullest potential.
