The Algonquin Island Forest Kindergarten (AIFK) is an education and childcare service on the Toronto Islands.

The Algonquin Island Forest Kindergarten supports early childhood growth through nature-based education that prioritizes outdoor play, fostering friendships, respect for nature, and more!

AIFK has three major offerings:

• Full-day kindergarten program from September to June.
• Parent and child playgroups.
• Forest families gathering.

AIFK also offers part-time options to make the program more accessible for families!

Algonquin Island Forest Kindergarten’s founder and lead teacher Symon James-Wilson is an Ontario Certified Teacher and a third generation Toronto Island resident.

The Algonquin Island Forest Kindergarten has open houses throughout the year giving you a chance to meet Ms. James-Wilson, and see the diverse natural environments where AIFK kindergarteners will learn and play each day.
