Our Philosophy
"Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands serve the Lord with gladness, and come into his presence with singing (thanksgiving).”
--Psalm 66
The purpose of A Joyful Noise (AJN) is to provide a school based on the principles of child development and the values and wisdom of the Christian faith.
We believe in encouraging the growth of spirituality and facilitating a language of faith. We provide activities that enhance the whole child, helping him or her grow physically, intellectually, emotionally, socially and spiritually in these unique early years. Using a structured yet flexible curriculum, and developmentally appropriate activities, teachers will promote both group experiences and individual discovery.
The theory and practice of religious education at our preschool is harmonious with that of our church, an inter-denominational Christian Church. We teach Bible stories and sing Christian songs in addition to other stories and songs. Our Christian teachings include love, forgiveness, caring for one another and the world, and inclusion (i.e., everyone is a valued child of God). At A JoyfulNoise children, teachers, and parents work together to facilitate an appreciation of and wonder for God’s creations.
