General Info

The Bannockburn Cooperative Nursery School, Inc ( BNS ) opened in 1950. As a cooperative nursery school, its members own and operate the school and, with the guidance of teachers trained in early childhood development, share the responsibility for educating the children. We encourage each child to grow at his own rate and in his own style in social, emotional, and intellectual areas. We seek to maintain a happy and relaxed classroom atmosphere and to follow a well planned curriculum. A child's day may include art, crafts, music and singing, dramatic play and stories, block building, active outdoor play, quiet moments, and many other enjoyable and creative activities. Our goal is to make learning exciting and fun in a way that encourages each child s positive feelings about himself/herself.
