Billy Dalwin Pre-School offers extended hours for preschoolers before and after our morning program. The Extended Day program provides the opportunity for children to spend time with friends from their class and from other classes. Our children enjoy extending their indoor and outdoor playtime, having lunch with their friends, listening to stories and participating in projects and dramatic play.

Early Birds, Lunch Bunch and Keshet Club are designed for mixed age groupings. Although children are generally grouped with some friends from their morning class, they also have the opportunity to spend time in other classrooms, playing with older and younger friends from different classes, and developing important bonds with various staff members. Our Extended Day program has helped to strengthen the sense of community that exists within the preschool, facilitating cross-class and cross-age friendships.
