About Bellevue KindergartenBellevue Kindergarten offers 3-year-old and 4-year-old programs with sessions running simultaneously. The kindergarten’s philosophy values play-based learning and development through active exploration and participation. Our 3- and 4-year-old educators are educated in Rhythm and Movement for Self-Regulation (RAMSR) and offer this into the program, in addition to a sports specialist for our 4-year-old children. The children engage in many incursions and excursions. Parents are encouraged to participate in the kindergarten experience and education, as many opportunities are provided throughout the year. 2026 session times3-year-old kindergarten programCaterpillar groupThis program offers 15 hours of free kinder per week and 1 hour and 30 minutes of optional additional hours.DayFree kinder hoursAdditional hoursMonday9 am to 2 pm2 to 2:30 pmTuesday9 am to 2 pm2 to 2:30 pmThursday9 am to 2 pm2 to 2:30 pm4-year-old kindergarten programButterfly groupThis program offers 15 hours of free kinder per week and 3 optional additional hours.DayFree kinder hoursAdditional hoursMonday8:30 am to 2:30 pmNoneTuesday8:30 am to 2:30 pmNoneThursday11:30 am to 2:30 pm8:30 to 11:30 amThe Butterfly group is an 18-hours-per-week program.
