CKV is an early childhood education program on Santa Catalina Island. You can find us in the city of Avalon, near City Hall.
At CKV we offer Toddler, Preschool, and Pre- Kindergarten programs. We provide a nurturing environment for your child's early learning.
At Catalina Kid Ventures, we strive to provide a nurturing environment where children can learn and grow.
Our mission is to foster creativity, curiosity and a love for learning in every child.
The goals and objectives of CKV are to issue care in a safe, creative environment that will stimulate the child, specifically enhancing learning in the areas of social and emotional, cognitive, language and physical development. We aim to achieve these goals by providing developmentally appropriate activities while meeting the individual needs of each child and by building respectful relationships the children can depend on.
Our curriculum is designed to give your child a solid foundation in the fundamentals of learning while also encouraging creativity and curiosity. We cover subjects like math, science, and language arts, as well as offering opportunities for art and music exploration.
Our teachers are highly trained professionals who are dedicated to providing a safe and nurturing environment for your child. They are passionate about early childhood education and are committed to helping your child reach their full potential.
We offer quality care Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. for children ages 18 months through five years. We have two classrooms, our Toddler room and our Preschool/Pre-K classroom. The Toddler room serves 18 - 30 months and children have the option of remaining in this room until age 3. The Preschool/Pre-K room serves ages 2 1/2 years - 6 years. Children must be potty trained to be in the Preschool/Pre -K room.
Our daily schedule provides for both free choice and teacher directed activities and both inside and outside play time. Our schedule is posted by the front door and included on this website.
We offer two snacks that are provided by the center. It is the parent’s/guardian’s responsibility to provide a lunch for your child. We also provide and offer water throughout the day. Nap time is from 12:00 - 2:00 and we try our best to get the children to sleep or at least rest for a while.
If you have questions about the opportunities available to you in our programs, feel free to send us a message, or give us a call. We will get back to you as soon as possible.
