The Vancouver Island Coop Preschool Association is currently seeking licensed ECE’s for substitute work during the 2009/2010 school year.

Vancouver Island Cooperative Preschool Association (VICPA) preschools provide a play-based curriculum that:

supports the development of the whole child - socially, emotionally, physically, and intellectually.
allows for the recognition of each child’s unique learning style, abilities, and developmental level.
allows for hands on learning, where the curriculum can emerge from the children’s interests, needs and
desires; making learning concrete and meaningful.

All VICPA preschools are parent-operated on a cooperative basis. The preschools are administered and maintained by the parents on a non-profit, non-sectarian, inter-racial basis. Under the guidance of a qualified Early Childhood Educator (ECE) parents assist in the classroom. We are currently seeking substitutes for all 14 preschools on Vancouver Island.

If you are interested in finding out more about substituting at a VICPA preschool, please contact:

Neala St. Hilaire, VICPA consultant
