Hunter Street Preschool

PRESCHOOL MINISTRY

Welcome to Preschool!

It is our joy to partner with parents as we nurture a foundation of faith in young hearts ranging from birth to kindergarten.

We create a safe, nurturing, and loving environment for preschoolers of all ages, regardless of ability. We teach through engaging, fun, and age-appropriate activities that encourage a love of God, His Word, and one another.

Preschool Midweek

Midweek in Preschool is nothing short of an adventure! Each Wednesday night, preschoolers "travel around the world" and learn about Hunter Street's mission partners and the people they share the love of Jesus with. They also learn about the love of Christ through a variety of fun and engaging hands-on activities that teach music.

Preschool

Safety and Security

We want your child to feel loved and secure from the very first time he or she comes to Hunter Street. As your child experiences security through loving, consistent relationships with teachers, a sense of trust will begin to develop, which can help form a foundation for spiritual decisions later on.

We also want you to feel secure about leaving your child in our Preschool Department. We know that if you are confident in leaving your child in the care of loving teachers in a safe environment, you will be better able to worship and study.

All of our staff and volunteers have completed Ministry Safe training and background checks.
