Excellent school and teachers. My daughter and son all had good time there. We will miss the school, the teachers and the kids....wonderful memories.
My son was in this school for 2 years
It was awesome, very nice and talented teachers.
Atmosphere was nice and they develop kids at their own pace, but always challenging them to get them to the next level of confidence.
We were coming strait from UK, Wycliffe in Stonehouse , which is an elite school in Gloucestershire, and to be honest we did not know how it would go coming to Canada.
After That Hugo integrated an international school in Houston Texas, where I have to say he is brilliant, and I think thanks to his hard work, but the support he got all along during his education, Progressive Academy being one of them!
This school has made an incredible difference to my daughter's personality and development. She was in another daycare close to this one but it was basically a warehouse for children and at 4 years old she was constantly acting out and shy. We decided to pay a little more and move her to this school and that is when the magic happened. She completely transformed and started to enjoy and look forward to going to school. They taught her manners, confidence, routine and within 6 months she was actually reading sometimes short sentences. The Jolly Phonics program they have is a fun way to learn reading and writing. The teachers are organized and love to teach. They also teach about the weather, nature, calendars, music, art, French and lots of play time starting at 3 years old. My daughter now has confidence to ask questions and raise her hands, loves to read story books and can tell you the life cycle of butterflies, frogs and name all the days, months and seasons of the year. She can actually point to a leaf and tell me what tree type it came from. The last thing I want to clarify is that this school has nothing to do with Scientology or any other idea and I have no idea how that rumour started. It is just a good Canadian school with relaxing atmosphere and updated learning techniques.
