Evergreen Independent School Preschool - Grade 7 3515 Watson Avenue Cobble Hill 250-743-2433 evergreenbc.net

T

hirty-eight years ago, a group of parents in Cobble Hill were searching for an alternative learning environment for their children. Evergreen Independent School was established with an eye towards building community while providing a safe and supportive learning setting for students. The parents and teachers of Evergreen Independent School are committed to a philosophy that develops the full potential of each child. Small class sizes, innovative teaching, and multi- grade classrooms enhance individual learning and create positive socialization across all grade levels. Evergreen has a structured learning environment where academic excellence is fostered. The school also boasts a robust food literacy program for students, as well as a fully gluten-free kitchen to accommodate special dietary needs for our students and

guests. We are also extremely proud of our beautiful garden space where students gain the skills needed to grow and harvest their very own vegetables. Evergreen is home to the Cobble Hill Community Pavilion – a gorgeous timberframed, shared community space for the school, parents, and local residents. Students and staff enjoy the use of this covered space for sports, playtime and as an extension of the classroom for outdoor learning. We are proud to offer programs for younger students: Evergreen Explorers program for 3-year-olds (offered twice a week) Junior Kindergarten for 4-year-olds (Monday through Thursday) Come see why families choose Evergreen! For further information or to arrange a tour, please contact our administration at 250-743-2433 or evergreen@evergreenbc.net.
