A short drive from Fairfield & Gonzales.
Park Lane Preschool is based in Saanich East — about 12–15 minutes from the heart of Fairfield, Gonzales, and Rockland — for Victoria families who want forest-rich early learning.
If you live in Fairfield, Gonzales, Rockland, or the nearby Fernwood and Cook Street Village areas, Park Lane is an easy 12–15 minute commute via Shelbourne or Richmond Road. Our home at 1924 Carrick Street in Saanich East backs onto quiet residential streets and sits within easy reach of the parkland we use for our weekly Nature School — Mount Tolmie, Uplands Park, and Mount Douglas Park.
A preschool for Fairfield and Gonzales families who want more than a classroom
Fairfield and Gonzales have strong community ties — farmers' markets, walkable villages, the sea always close. Park Lane extends that spirit into the week: small groups, real relationships between teachers and families, and forest time built into every child's schedule. For families already making the daily trip up Shelbourne or Richmond for work or family, we're an easy addition to the route.
What a week looks like
- Four mornings in the classroom — Montessori-inspired materials, early literacy work, purposeful play.
- One weekly Nature School session — a full morning in the forest, rain or shine.
- Daily outdoor play in our on-site garden and adjoining green space.
- Mixed-age group of children aged 30 months to school age, with a low adult-to-child ratio.
