“The sweetest little community preschool, and loveliest teachers, some who have taught all three of our kids, the older two now 17 and 11, with their little sister two years old, having just joined this year. Still just as lovely as always, lots of educational activities, lots of learning, play and interaction with teachers. Good routine structure. Highly recommend.”
