OUR PHILOSOPHY. We strive to provide services that enable our clients to manage their benefit plans and, ultimately, their operations more effectively. We accomplish this by providing understandable and accurate consulting advice on a timely and cost-efficient basis. Effective employee benefits consulting should:  Reflect the goals, objectives and financial strategies of the client organization  Be empirically sound and easily understood to benefit professionals, as well as Senior Management and the Board of Directors  Focus not only on short-term financial considerations, but also on the true cost of a given benefit or funding vehicle over the long-term  Serve as a catalyst and educational vehicle for helping the client deal effectively with the evolving nature of employee benefits and the effects of those evolutionary trends on his/her benefit programs  Assist in developing a conceptual framework for client benefit decisions and in ensuring that a long-term strategic planning structure is in place, so there is adequate flexibility to weather changes in benefit delivery mechanisms and regulatory requirements  Create a synergy that stimulates the client's benefits team and consulting team to collectively work better than each group would have on their own To accomplish this, we encourage discussions about all aspects of employee benefits plan design, funding and philosophies. Our approach requires more than technical skill. Rather, our designated consulting team is creative, innovative, sensitive to the client's culture and educated in the overall field of employee benefits plan management. We emphasize an understanding of the manner in which benefits affect the total client structure. This capability is part of what makes us unique. USI is a diversified insurance and financial services firm focused on a technology enabled, fully integrated delivery of general and specialty property & casualty insurance, financial services such as employee benefits outsourcing, third-party administration, and related consulting.

OUR PHILOSOPHY. We believe in creating a rich learning environment that will enhance a child’s intellectual, emotional, social and physical growth. Each child will have the opportunity to explore and manipulate the materials available, as children learn best through play and social opportunities. The children will have structured activities as well as numerous possibilities for creative thinking. PROGRAM COMPONENTS Our program runs from September through June with one or two sessions, depending on enrollment. Children are to be brought to the preschool no more than 15 minutes prior to class start. The preschool classroom door will open 5 minutes prior to class start, and children may be left in the care of the teachers at that time. Program components include: Free Play Outdoor Play Learning Circle Story Time & Songs Snack Art and Craft Stations Dismissal GUIDANCE POLICY The teachers and parents will work together to create a warm, happy, relaxed, child-oriented environment with minimum restrictions and guidelines. Rules and expectations are reasonable and appropriate for the children’s developmental level. They are clearly set out in advance and reinforced in a positive way. The children are given the chance to take responsibility, make decisions, and resolve their own conflicts. The teacher will help the children find a solution acceptable to all parties involved in a dispute. Children learn strategies to deal with conflicts. The children are allowed to experience the natural consequences of their actions, within reasonable and safe limits. We acknowledge the children’s right to their feelings, although we may require them to express these emotions in a controlled manner. The behaviour, not the child as an individual, is discussed. Inappropriate behaviour interferes with a smooth operation of the class. If this occurs, the teacher will discuss the behaviour with the child. The preschool is operated on a non-profit basis, with Monthly Fees being used to pay the teachers’ salaries. Fees are payable by the first of the month. Post-dated cheques for monthly fees will be required for the school year until the end of May. If this is not possible, arrangements will need to be made with the Treasurer. A deposit is required upon registration to guarantee your child’s spot. This will be in the form of a cheque dated September 1, 2011 in the amount of your monthly fee. We require one month’s notice for withdrawal from the program. The current Monthly Fees are $95.00 per month for ...
