After a great deal of thoughtful consideration, West Point Grey Academy has changed the name of its four year-old programme from pre-kindergarten to junior kindergarten.

The name junior kindergarten is a closer reflection of the academic, four pillar programme which has been designed for this age group and currently being taught at West Point Grey Academy. Junior kindergarten is also a more universal term for a four year old programme, and sets the school up for meaningful interaction with other junior kindergarten programmes on an international level.

As a school, we will be making the necessary changes on all documents and communication referring to the junior kindergarten programme over the next few weeks.  Please do not hestitate to contact Ms. Sali with any questions or for further information.

Since 1996, West Point Grey Academy has gratefully resided on the Jericho Lands, the unceded traditional territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam Indian Band), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish) Nation and sə̓lílwətaʔɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nation. Honoured to learn and play on these beautiful lands, we endeavour to be a leader in Indigenous education. In creating shared understanding and opportunities, we hope to help foster a more equitable society for all.
