the benefits of the arts How a well-rounded education improves learning outcomes 

It’s true that integrating the arts with education makes learning more fun. It introduces an aspect of play, develops the joy of discovery, enhances the thrill of exploration. This results in children enjoying the process of learning more and developing frameworks that allow them to study better. But it does so much more than that: a well-rounded education increases critical learning skills and fosters such pro-social behaviours as collaboration, cooperation and communication that are going to be useful in any situation and help your children thrive.

Our Programs

ages 1-5 Where learning paths are limitless

Foster a love of learning and the arts through this unique curriculum, based on Montessori and Reggio Emilia principles and enhanced through music, art, dance and theatre. Through meaningful daily learning experiences as well as multi-sensory and age-appropriate activities, even the youngest students can develop their intellectual and artistic abilities.

Our staff of Early Childhood Education teachers guide students through age-appropriate lessons, materials and opportunities that will build a strong foundation for both Kindergarten and the primary years ahead.

What Families Say about us

  • “Renaissance Kids' carefully though-out curriculum and services are designed to provide students with an absolutely safe and comfortable environment where they can study happily and establish a strong and solid foundation for their future. “

    Sharon Kong

  • “As parents, we felt guilty sending our daughter to more ‘“schooling” after her regular school hours. We felt surprised and relieved that our daughter actually looks forward to the days she attends Spark and she even begs us to not pick her up too early! From the incredibly kind and caring teachers to the fun and engaging classes each day, you can’t go wrong with Spark!”

    Taji Grguric

  • “We want to thank you and the Spark team for the wonderful experience we've had over the years. Both my children have loved their time at the school and have benefited from the amazing educators in the program. 10 years of great programming!”

    Jennifer McCracken

  • “All the classes are focused and have a purpose to engage the children. We can't imagine a better scenario for our daughter, the Spark program is entirely more than a before and after school program, it exposes children to higher levels of art that they don't experience in public schools.”
