Mr. Turtle’s School is a cooperative school because toddlerhood is a transition period between infancy and childhood.


As every parent knows, toddlers at times demonstrate a fierce independence and at other times display an equally strong need for immediate support from a parent. The chance that a child’s first experience with school will be a fun, positive and rewarding one is much greater if the parent is present. It is important for parents too… it is rare that parents are invited into the classrooms of their children to participate every step of the way. Mr. Turtle’s School is a wonderful opportunity for parents to witness firsthand how their children interact at school.


Parents are able to be there to provide the encouragement and direction their children need that will stay with them once they move on to independent schools. Mr. Turtle invites you to be the “fly on the wall” and gives you the opportunity to make wonderful memories that you and your little ones will treasure forever.
