    Why First Pact?

    Some of life's most meaningful connections begin in childhood.

    Our name was inspired by the first bonds children begin forming with one another — and with friendship, curiosity and learning.

    Why Families Choose First Pact

    A location designed around family life

    Approximately three minutes from Highway 403 and about five minutes from either Burlington GO or Appleby GO, First Pact Academy is thoughtfully positioned for families balancing childcare, work and commuting.

    Room to move, explore and discover

    More than 3,000 sq ft of fenced outdoor space gives children room to move, explore, imagine and connect with the world around them. Protective bollards have also been installed around the playground perimeter to create additional separation from vehicle areas.

    Spaces that help children feel at ease

    Thoughtfully planned environments and predictable routines help children settle comfortably, stay engaged and move with greater confidence between play, meals, rest, outdoor time and the many transitions within their day.

    Space to explore, pause and reset

    Sensory experiences and calmer spaces give children opportunities to investigate through their senses, find a different pace and transition more comfortably throughout the day.

    Safe. Respected. Capable. Connected.
