Shire Prep is a nurturing, Christian environment
The Shire Prep early-learning program plays a significant part in the adjustment, nurturing and training of our children in what is, for many, their first learning experience outside of the home.
At Shire Prep your child can learn to adjust and develop school readiness through play, language-based activities and other structured learning experiences.
Experience a nurturing transition
Because we are committed to provide a secure, supportive transition from home to school, you and your child experience the warm, friendly and nurturing atmosphere created by our staff and community.
Why Shire Prep?
There is strong research evidence that high-quality preschool education and qualified teachers improve a child’s language and cognitive development.
