As New Canaan’s only Catholic preschool, we are proud to offer families a unique opportunity to nurture the development of young children in a faith-filled, caring and joyful environment. We are partners in laying a strong foundation – spiritually, academically, socially and
emotionally – for each child’s future success.
At our preschool, children will thrive in state-of-the-art facilities, designed specifically for early learning. Bright, welcoming classrooms and safe and secure play areas inspire creativity, exploration and discovery every day.
Our play based curriculum engages children in hands-on experiences that foster curiosity and problem-solving while encouraging cooperation and kindness. We focus on developing the whole child – helping them grow in faith, confidence and character, as well as in academic readiness.
Here, children don’t just prepare for school – they begin a lifelong journey of faith, learning and friendship.
Dear Friends,
I am happy to introduce you to Saint Aloysius Catholic Preschool, where formation in Catholic tradition meets excellence in early education. In this inaugural year of our school, we will welcome children and families to a brand-new state-of-the-art facility that includes ample learning space with plenty of room for the creative arts, indoor and outdoor recreation, and prayer. Our mission is to provide children ages 2 through 5 with an excellent preparation for kindergarten and the school years that follow, while assisting parents in teaching their young ones to know and love God who is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
As a ministry of Saint Aloysius Parish, the Saint Aloysius Preschool is part of one of the largest Catholic parishes in Fairfield County. Students and parents will share in the many resources available to the large number of young and growing families that comprise the parish. The clergy and staff of the parish are committed to partnering with our preschool in offering a model for early education and Catholic formation that nurtures good and holy disciples and strong witnesses of the Gospel.
The preschool staff and faculty will bring a love for children and a zeal for the Catholic faith to every endeavor. They will partner with parents in their vocation of raising their little ones in a world that can challenge Christian virtues. Our approach is rich in tradition while incorporating the best of current early education pedagogy. Our hope is that each child who learns, plays, and prays in our school will experience the joy of expanding their intellectual and spiritual horizons while forming lasting friendships with one another and with Christ and the Saints.
I invite you to learn more about our school, and I look forward to welcoming you to our beautiful campus one day soon.
Yours in Christ,
Rev. Msgr. Robert M. Kinnally
Pastor
