The Kindergartens at TCKC, located in Roma, Warwick, and Pittsworth, provide a beautiful natural setting for children and families to engage in a holistic learning journey. Emphasizing a Catholic ethos, the program encourages children to explore endless learning possibilities through real-life experiences and playful investigations both indoors and outdoors.
