Keep Your Children Active All Week Long & Have the Weekends for Family Time
You don’t have to be registered in Ganon to take advantage of our amazing programs like the Preschool Afternoon Enrichment Programs or the new Kindergarten Club for children already enrolled in a morning SK. Our classes stimulate young minds and encourage creative play under the supervision of E.C.E. teachers and qualified professionals.

The Ganon Preschool paves the way toward excellence in early childhood education. Its students develop a true love of learning as they embark upon a journey of discovery and wonder led by a team of truly dedicated, caring and loving teachers. Through the implementation of a program that is both developmentally appropriate and rich in Jewish tradition customs and values, each child builds the foundation for a meaningful and strong Jewish identity.

An Ethical Start with Peer K. Explorer
This loveable character is the centre of An Ethical Start, an early childhood curriculum developed by and for the Jewish Community Centres of North America. Just as Pirkei Avot is the classic guide to Jewish ethics, An Ethical Start is a child’s guide to the world of Jewish learning that is both engaging and fun.

You must be a Chai Family Members or Gold or Platinum Benefactors in order to qualify for the Member rates at the Soloway JCC Ganon Preschool.

NEW! SHABBAT SHALOM K!
Based on the popular Shabbat song “Shabbat Shalom Hey!”, the Soloway JCC will be offering a brand new program called Shabbat Shalom K! Special for Kindergarten Kids! Every Friday, from 8:30 - 12:30, JK and SK children, who attend public school in the afternoons, are welcome to come together for a morning of celebration and fun. We will participate in Shabbat festivities, learn about Jewish Holidays and also partake in activities such as gym, music, art and cooking.
