Our Philosophy: Play is child’s “work”
First Presbyterian Church Nursery School is a preschool learning center founded in 1975. Because a child learns through their play in their preschool years, the program at FPCNS is play-oriented. Play provides an opportunity for hands-on learning and discovery through the use of a wide variety of materials.
 
Activities are selected and organized by qualified and dedicated teachers who have knowledge of the needs and interests of young children. Our curriculum involves the following elements to help children learn through play: thematic units using children’s literature, hands-on science experiments, music/movement, dramatic play, creative art activities, exploring art with different media, small motor manipulatives, large building blocks, indoor/outdoor play areas, cooking fun, letter of the week, pre-math manipulatives.
