Beckenridge Discovery Preschool is celebrating 10 years this summer. As our first location, its dedication to the research of the Reggio Emilia Philosophy has the caught the attention of Seneca and Centennial Colleges as a preferred location for student placement. This year we hosted Lella Gandini, US Ambassador of the Reggio Approach to the school in May 2012. Lella worked with the teachers of all our schools on a research topic requested by the journey of our work. We were very excited to have her. Please call Connie Caia to arrange a tour of the school. It is best to come from 9:00 to 11:00 as you will see a full curriculum session as we tour.
