Mission Statement
We will educate children in a creative, supportive, nurturing environment in partnership with family and community.
About This Cause
Canterbury has been part of the Richmond educational community for over 40 years. We are a non-profit secular preschool, dedicated to providing high-quality programs for children ages 16 months to 5 1/2. We believe in partnering with families, working together to meet the developmental needs of children. Canterbury’s philosophy of educating children is based on the learning theories of Jean Piaget. He demonstrated that children learn best when they are experiencing the world around them through play. Canterbury is committed to providing children with the tools and guidance they need to learn. We view teachers, children and families as partners in helping the whole child develop intellectually, socially, emotionally and physically. We are licensed by the Virginia Department of Education and accredited by the National Accreditation Commission (NAC) through NACCP (National Association of Child Care Professionals). Every year, approximately 135 families enroll their children at Canterbury to give them the best possible start to learning. Canterbury admits students of any race, color, or national and ethnic origins to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, or national and ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies, admission policies and School administered programs.
