Magic Circle Is Located Inside An amazing elementary School!

Magic Circle

Our Learning Environment

At Magic Circle Preschool, we’re lucky to have two bright, spacious classrooms within Sherbrooke Academy Sr. Elementary School. This unique setting helps ease the transition to Kindergarten, giving children early exposure to “school life” while enjoying shared facilities like the gym and library.

Preschool is a time to spark a love of learning and prepare for the future. Through play, we nurture essential skills like routines, sharing, patience, communication, and independence—all key to social and emotional growth.

Being in an elementary school environment allows us to gently introduce children to big-school experiences, like recess bells and interactions with older students, in a safe and fun way. By the time they start Kindergarten, it all feels familiar and exciting.

We welcome children of all learning abilities and are committed to fostering an inclusive and supportive environment. However, if a child's specific needs prevent us from safely caring for, teaching, or protecting all children in our program—or if the child is unable to recognize danger and may pose a risk to themselves or others—we may determine that our program is not the right fit. In such cases, we will communicate openly with families and support them in exploring more suitable options.

Our Magical Classrooms

Our two connected classrooms are designed with "Play-to-Learn Stations" that encourage connection and organization. Children have the freedom to move between these play stations without restrictions, empowering them to make their own choices and fostering a sense of independence. We also do outdoor learning amongst the trees right outside the school

Our School Gym

Because Magic Circle Preschool is located in Sherbrooke Academy, we go to the full indoor gym every single day! This allows Physical movement and active games to be at the core of our program- whether it be for a fast-paced game of tag, silly dancing, ribbon spinning, or team sports.

 

The children don't feel like they're "exercising" and developing their gross motor skills -  they're just having fun!

A Forest in our Backyard

At our preschool, we offer a unique learning experience with our perfect little forest in our backyard. Our classroom boasts large floor-to-ceiling windows facing the forest, creating an amazing backdrop for peaceful learning. We believe in the importance of children having the opportunity to play and learn outside, and our little forest provides just that. From watching the leaves change to finding creepy crawlies, the opportunities that our forest offers are unique.

Our Reading Corner

Group storytime is a huge hit, not surprisingly! But so is the opportunity to practice peaceful quiet time in the reading corner and learning to explore their individual interests with books!

Outdoor Spaces

Outdoor playtime is a priority for us. Because of our unique location, without crossing a street we have:

  • a tobogganing hill

  • 3 play structures

  • a soccer field 

  • a forest

  • a park
