Building Confidence & Curiosity

Our Kindergarten classroom is a place of belonging, contributing, self-regulating and wellbeing. Our curriculum invites young learners to discover and pursue what excites them under the guidance of engaged educators. Add to this a Structured Literacy Program, Arts and Athletic Field Trips, Wonder Walks, Units of Inquiry and Emergent Science, the RDS Kindergarten experience offers a culturally responsive pedagogy while developing independence, self-confidence, and curiosity about the world through a child-centred, inquiry-based approach.

How Children See Themselves Matters

The Kindergarten Program at RDS is focused on developing independence through a child-centred, inquiry-based approach. In class, students interact with provocations (creative work stations) that encourage independent problem solving skills and design-based thinking. Students learn about belonging and the importance of contributing through co-regulation, empathy and constructive conflict solving. Both classrooms and curricula are designed with the intention of being easily accessed and interpreted by children according to their age and comprehension level.

The RDS Kindergarten curriculum scaffolds students' social-emotional skills with co-regulation techniques, creative problem solving exercises and a safe space to work through big feelings.
