Creative Arts gives budding artists the opportunity to discover, create and explore their way through a variety of art experiences. There is no right or wrong way for our projects to turn out! The primary goal is for children to explore, enjoy, learn from and begin to appreciate art while having fun throughout the process. Each class focuses on a specific topic or artist. From learning the color wheel and mixing colors, to the techniques of classic artists such as Van Gogh, Michelangelo, and Monet, to the drawings of Eric Carle and Shel Silverstein, it’s an exciting, colorful adventure resulting in masterpieces to treasure for years to come. Creative Arts is offered on Friday afternoons.

Our Adventures in STEM class is designed to spark curiosity and foster a love of learning through hands-on, playful exploration of science, technology, engineering, and math concepts. Young learners will engage in exciting experiments, build creative structures, and discover the wonders of the world around them through age-appropriate activities that encourage questioning, problem-solving, and critical thinking skills. Adventures in STEM will be offered on Monday afternoons.

Come join us for even more fun in our newest enrichment class. We will play with friends, read books and participate in more hands-on learning activities. Our teachers will provide theme-based activities such as: art projects, science experiments and explorations, sensory activities, physical activities, baking, stories, songs and circle time, all while reinforcing fundamental academic and social/emotional skills through play! It’s also a great way to meet new friends at CCNS! Bright & Busy Afternoons will follow a schedule that is typical of our other preschool classes. Our Bright and Busy Afternoon Wednesday enrichment class is open to our Young 3's and 3's 2-day CCNS students and our Bright and Busy Tuesday and Thursday enrichment class is open to our 3's 3-day and Young 4s CCNS students.

Lunch and Learn

Lunch and Learn is a fun program that allows children to gather at the school on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays between 11:15AM and 1:00PM for educational activities and socialization with friends. In addition to eating lunch together, the children have the opportunity to extend their learning in an informal manner. Children participate in school-wide, theme-based activities including art projects, storytime, and outdoor play.

  • Age Group: All Ages
    * Students in our Young 3’s classes will be eligible for Lunch & Learn once they turn 3 years old.
  • Session Timing: Tues/Wed/Thurs 11:15AM-1:00PM
