History of Lansing Co-operative Nursery School

Lansing Co-operative Nursery School was founded by Heather MacDonald and Lee Cowan in the fall of 1952. Its first location was a church basement. In 1957, through the efforts of a group of local parents and businessman, a permanent facility at 74 Church Avenue opened its doors to 80 children. Lansing prospered at that address for many years.

Since 1995, we have been enjoying our current facility which was built across the street from the original building.  With over 50 years of experience, Lansing is well established and well respected co-operative school, where parents and teachers work together.
