Holy Spirit Catholic Preschool
Basseterre St. Kitts, West Indies
The Holy Spirit Catholic Preschool focuses on:
In 2005 the Holy Spirit Missionary Sisters arrived in St. Kitts, the smallest country in the Caribbean. Since then, we have seen the needs
of young children. Most of them are from homes with a single mother who needs to work outside of the home to provide food and housing.
Thus, there is little time or attention for her child. We saw that the precious years of early childhood needed to be utilized for developing skills
and values, and that children needed to do this having fun together. We dreamed of gathering the children together in a safe place to learn
through playing, thus nurturing a wholesome foundation for their lives.
The dream was realized on Sunday, September 4, 2011 when we celebrated the opening of the new preschool. There are currently
seventeen children, who are with us from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm Monday through Friday. During that time, we have devotions in the morning,
which consist of Bible stories, praying, songs, etc. Other activities throughout the day include outdoor play, small group activities, snacks,
lunch time, breaks for bathroom visits, naps and circle time.
