About Us
LCDS Preschool & Kindergarten (formerly Londonderry Child Development Society) was established in North Edmonton in 1972 by a group of parents who wanted an early learning program in their community for their young children. They wanted to be actively involved in their children's education and they believed that learning should be fun.
LCDS is a Parent Cooperative, program and is a registered not-for-profit organization established under the Societies Act of Alberta. We are licensed and registered with Alberta Child and Family Services, Alberta Education and the City of Edmonton. We are proud to be members of the Association of Independent Schools & Colleges in Alberta and the Northern Alberta Preschool Teachers Association.
Registration 2020 - 2021
Registration for September 2020/2021
The school office is now open as of August 24, 2020 from 9:00 am - 3:45 pm
**As we adjust to the new safety measures for COVID-19, some of our parent commitments and classroom activities are being adjusted to accommodate the requirements from Alberta Health.
We are still accepting preschool registrations for September, for the afternoon class.
**(The Morning class, Kindergarten and Junior Kindergarten spots, and registration spots which require Educational Supports such as Speech & Language or other supports are currently all full with a wait list. Please contact the office if you would like to be added to the waitlist.)
If you would like to contact us regarding registration for your child, you may send us an email or a phone message.
Due to the small nature of our program, there are no guarantees for a spot. All registrations are on a first come, first serve basis.
**Your child must be 3 years of age and must be fully independent in the washroom stall before they can attend.
For Kindergarten eligibility in the province of Alberta, your child must turn 5 years old before December 31st of the coming school year.
