Families who are interested in applying to Discover First Step Pre-School & Day Care should begin the process by submitting the enquiry form.

Parent Visit
Tour our beautiful school and get a chance to see our incredible facilities. Our tours take place while school is in session. They are an opportunity to look closely. We enter classrooms to observe conversations, to see the documentation on the walls, to watch the way students treat one another and to hear the voices in which teachers speak to children and in which students speak to each other. The connections between people are palpable.
This will be the time for you to explore our preschool and ask questions. We encourage both parents to be involved in the admissions process and take this time to become familiar with our school, our belief and education style. 

• Experience first-hand what takes place inside First Step classroom.
• Visit classrooms in the Lower School (Nursery–Kindergarten) and Middle School (Grades 1–2).
• Tour the school while your child is in the play visit.
• If your child attends an early childhood program, please have the Confidential School Report and Transfer Certificate.

Child Visit
Your child’s one-hour visit will be during a weekday in a group of four to six applicant children. Visits are play-based. Children engage in a variety of activities, some at their own initiative and others at the interviewer’s request.

• Exploration/play with materials in the room
• Puzzles
• Drawing
• Listening to a story
• Snack
• Movement Activity

Parents will meet with a member of our Admission team on the same day as their child’s playgroup interview/assessment shall be in progress.

• We encourage both parents (if applicable) to come to the interview.
• At the interview, we will get to know your family, discuss what you are looking for in a school, and answer any questions you may have about the admissions process.

Formal admissions testing is not required for applicants applying for Grades Play Group through Grade 2. Admissions team will share the performance current status report prepared on the basis of child involvement in classroom activities during school visit.
