Prior to the registration night:

*Children registered in the 3 year old class are guaranteed a spot in the 4 year old class the next school year.  However, parents must get their child’s registration form into the playschool by the deadline given.  After this date, the spot is not guaranteed. Current families with a child registered in the school may also pre-register siblings for either class for the upcoming year.

• A $75 registration fee sent via e transfer to westridgeplayschoolregistrar@gmail.com (non-refundable after you receive a spot in the Playschool).
• A completed PAD banking form for monthly fees, first months payment will be withdrawn September 1st 2025 (scanned or dropped off), or cheque for full year of tuition.

Open House Night Procedures

Open House February 4th at 12pm, February 5th at 530pm.

After all registration forms are collected between January 27th and February 5th@7:30pm, they will be sorted according to priority. We have never had a year without “out of area” families in the Playschool. On open house night, IF we have more applicants than spots available the following will be applied, however we always have “out of area” families receive spots in our school. 

Priority will be given:

First: to siblings of alumni children, previously registered in the playschool, who live IN the community (Westridge, Wolf Willow, Country Club).

Second: to new children who live IN the community.

Third: to siblings of alumni children, previously registered in the playschool within the last 2 years, who live OUT of the community.

Fourth: to new children who live OUT of the community.

• If necessary, a lottery will be done for any categories exceeding the spots based on this priority system.

• Waiting lists will be compiled after 16 three year olds and 18 four year olds are registered.

• Notifications of registration will be emailed to families within a week of registration night.

• Registrations submitted after registration night will be accepted in the order that they are received, no priority is given to in area families after registration night.

We have a Pre-Authorized Debit system for paying the monthly fees. You will fill out a form to enable the Playschool to automatically withdraw the monthly fees from your bank account. First payment will be withdrawn September 1st 2024. Or you may provide a cheque for the entire year tuition.

* Subject to change: Fees posted have been reduced due to receiving the Government of Alberta Affordability Grant. Previous fees were $175 for 3 yr old and $205 for 4 year old. Families eligible for government subsidy will pay partial tuition dependant on their subsidy amount. Families are responsible for their own subsidy applications and will be required to provide the playschool with all the pertinent documents.*
