Surrey, BC – Parents and families in Surrey now have a premier destination for early childhood education with the grand opening of Power Play Early Learning. Their facility is located at 15000 54a Ave, Surrey BC, within "Excellent Ice", Surrey BC’s premiere 3 on 3 community ice rink. Ice skating programs are available to their students. With a philosophy rooted in play-based learning and a focus on holistic development, Power Play Early Learning is set to become a cornerstone in Surrey’s early education landscape.
A New Approach to Early Childhood Education
Power Play Early Learning offers a comprehensive and dynamic learning experience for young children, blending structured activities with open-ended play to encourage cognitive, physical, social, and emotional development. With the grand opening, families in Surrey will now have access to an early learning program that prioritizes the whole child, ensuring that each child's unique needs and interests are met. According to the CDC, the early years of a child’s life are critical for building the foundation for learning, behavior, and health, making the quality of early education programs even more essential.
“Our mission is to support and nurture every aspect of a child's growth, creating a foundation for lifelong learning and success,” says Victoria Hunt, the center’s head educator and Director of Operations. “We believe that children learn best through play, and we are excited to offer a curriculum that combines fun, discovery, and education in a safe and supportive environment.”
The center offers both full-time and part-time programs, accommodating families with different scheduling needs. Power Play Early Learning’s play-based curriculum allows children to explore and learn at their own pace, building important social and academic skills in preparation for kindergarten and beyond.
Play-Based Curriculum: The Power of Learning Through Play
At the heart of Power Play Early Learning’s philosophy is the idea that children learn best when they are actively engaged in play. The play-based approach encourages children to explore their environment, interact with peers, and make discoveries on their own terms, fostering creativity, problem-solving, and independence.
“Our curriculum is designed to stimulate children’s natural curiosity and love of learning,” explains Victoria Hunt. “By integrating play into our daily activities, we help children develop cognitive and motor skills, build social connections, and gain confidence in their abilities.”
The curriculum is carefully crafted to include a wide range of activities that engage children in all areas of development. From arts and crafts, sensory play, and music to early literacy, math, and science exploration, every day offers something new and exciting. The center’s educators work closely with children to guide their learning while allowing them the freedom to make choices and explore their interests.
In addition to structured activities, Power Play Early Learning provides ample time for free play, both indoors and outdoors. Outdoor play is a key component of the center’s program, as physical activity is vital to a child’s development. The outdoor play area is designed to encourage movement and gross motor skills, with plenty of space for running, climbing, and exploring.
