Reach Developmental Preschool South Delta

formerly the Delta Child Development Centre preschool  (DCDC)

located at the main Reach centre at #3 3800 72nd street East Ladner, B.C.

 Registration for fall 2012 is on now. Options available for 2, 3 and 5 days a week.

At Reach Developmental Preschool our goal is to offer children a stimulating, inclusive environment with opportunities for social, emotional, cognitive and creative development, emphasizing the individual child’s awareness of his or her self, peers, family and society. We maintain a family-centered approach whereby parents and teachers work together to best address the needs of each individual child.

The preschool may serve up to 80 families at any one time. We operate an inclusive program, meeting the needs of children who require extra support and children who are developing typically. The children requiring extra support may include diagnosed syndromes including down syndrome and autism, behavioural challenges, hearing and sight impairments, physical disabilities or children who are medically fragile.
