The CEFA educational system at Core Educational & Fine Arts (CEFA) Junior Kindergarten is one of today’s leading approaches to educating young children. Its rich academic content is designed to stimulate children in many different ways, to optimize the natural development of their brains. This approach facilitates learning experiences in areas such as mathematics, reading, writing, drama, science, visual arts, music, yoga, and more.

It is based on the belief that children must be given the opportunity to learn and exercise their intellect in various forms, such as expression of creativity, reasoning, and sequential thinking. In the CEFA environment, children have ample time to learn, play, and express themselves creatively. Our full‑day early learning and junior kindergarten programs are far beyond the typical childcare programs found throughout Canada.
