Pauw Foundation
The Wim & Nancy Pauw Foundation has a goal to reinvest in Banff, contributing to programs that build a more active, vibrant and happy community.
The Pauw Foundation is proud to support the Banff Rundle Playschool. Where would our community be without affordable, reliable and nurturing child care programs. We have pledged to make an annual donation to help the playschool remain sustainable and affordable.
Foothills Creative Beginnings
Foothills Creative Beginnings (FCB) is an Early Intervention agency funded by Alberta Education that partners with numerous schools in and around the Calgary area. As we know, the early years are an important time in a child's development and children develop at their own rate. FCB offers support to eligible children, aged 3-5, working together on their specific needs and helping them to thrive at school. The Banff Rundle Playschool values the partnership with FCB, as we are able to offer screening and support from occupational therapists, speech and language pathologists and behavioural therapists. This partnership also funds an Educational Assistant to work with Playschool students during school hours. We currently have the honour of having Miss Eva and Miss Valentina in the classroom full time working with students one on one. All services are free of charge and are an essential tool in supporting a child's overall development.
