Saint Luke's Parish School is a nurturing, dynamic and educational weekday nursery school for children ages 2 through 5.
We place an emphasis on providing a warm, nurturing and fun school atmosphere that continually supports and encourages all of our children.
We take care to be aware of each child's unique needs, abilities and interests and, therefore, strive to create an environment that allows each child to grow to his or her fullest potential.
Our goal is to create a bridge for children from their homes to a wider world.
We believe learning through play develops self-confidence, spontaneity, creativity and a life-long interest in learning.
