Village Shul Tots Together
We believe that:
- Children are unique and special individuals who need to explore, create, discover, problem-solve and feel good about themselves. All children of different abilities can share and learn together.
- Children innately love to learn and have fun. “PLAY” is the optimum medium for children to learn.
- Children who are exposed to Jewish experiences that are meaningful, enjoyable and personal at a young age, will feel part of the Jewish people and will value that connection through love.
- A co-operative effort between teachers and parents is encouraged to optimally benefit each child’s learning experience.
To recognize and celebrate the individual learning styles, needs and unique background of every child.
To help each child actualize his/her potential in all areas of development through activity and play (i.e. cognitive, gross and fine motor, social-emotional, self help, language, etc.).
To expose children to the beauty and relevance of Judaism and the joy of the holidays in a stimulating, creative and warm atmosphere.
To create a comfortable, welcoming atmosphere for parents so that together we can nurture and facilitate learning and developmental growth.

We invite you to come and tour our facility. To book a tour, please contact Esther Stein at:
The Village Shul offers three bright and well equipped nursery rooms. Our facility is government approved and regularly undergoes separate inspections for health, fire, safety and government regulations. Our facility is maintained in top condition.
Completed in 1999, the Village Shul is a beautiful facility echoing images of Israel and Jerusalem with its stone tiling and arching window motif.
Under the supervision of Esther Stein (ECE), our programme has grown and continues to thrive. Ms. Stein brings with her many years of hands-on early childhood experience both as teacher and supervisor.
Esther has assembled a cohesive team of ECE teachers and their assistants to ensure that your child’s experience here is fun and educational.
