I pay $960 per child at a private preschool here in calgary so that's $1,920 for both of my 4 and 5 year old for 3 days a week. Their hours are from 0630-1800 so it works for me. If you think what you have to pay is overpriced just remember it could be ridiculously worst! We are getting what we pay for so I'm very happy with it. The kids will be in a public school after two years of private school so eager to see how they will adapt.
