儿童早期
新巴黎人注册网站的社区
One of the most important things children can get from school is a true sense of connection.
Our 儿童早期 students are held close—by their teachers, 由他们的同学, and by other Waynflete students—as they explore, 发现, 和玩耍.
Waynflete’s small class sizes, two-year advisor program, and Reggio Emilia curriculum are all designed to give our youngest learners lots of time with adults and friends they trust. That feeling of being seen and being safe is the foundation of all the learning, 伸展运动, and growing that follows.
伙伴计划
When you are in preschool, even a second grader seems really big. To build community and create bonds across the 较低的学校, Waynflete pairs each 儿童早期 student with their own “Buddy” in a higher grade. Buddies meet regularly to read books, 做手工艺品, 玩游戏, and answer questions about what being a Big Kid is really like.
Friends of Founders
Waynflete 上学校 students are frequent classroom visitors, sharing their own learning and expertise in connection with 儿童早期 studies. Stories of world travels, 大提琴独奏, printmaking demonstrations, and showing off soccer skills are some of the ways older students captivate and connect with our youngest learners.
Pachanga
A beloved Waynflete 较低的学校 tradition, weekly Pachanga gathers the entire 较低的学校 community together for group singing and sharing. 儿童早期 students regularly perform their own musical compositions at Pachanga, teaching everyone how to sing along—and twice each year, families are invited to come and share the fun.
DIVERSITY, EQUITY AND INCLUSION
Diversity is a condition of excellence.
A Waynflete education works as well as it does because our small and challenging classes contain so many different perspectives and life experiences. And as one of the most diverse schools in southern Maine, our entire community is committed to the urgent, 至关重要的, and ongoing work toward equity and inclusion.Learn how diversity can drive caring participation in the world.

What is Waynflete like for families?
Choosing an independent school means joining a new community not only for students, but for their families. Everyone you meet on the bus line, 在看台上, 在游戏时间, and around the bonfire at Beats and Bites comes from many different communities and diverse life experiences.You will have many chances to get to know them—and love them.

“Our EC classroom hums with the work of children—excited and productive play. It is an environment that nurtures experimentation, curiosity, and risk taking. We listen to children’s questions and ideas and design connected and purposeful learning opportunities that encourage deeper inquiry. Come see where they have taken us today!”
