黑马磁力鈥檚 new all-day pre-Kindergarten
CEFA-Willowbrook is getting ready to kick off a grand opening celebration on Saturday.
The fun-filled family event is open to the public and will feature school tours, prizes, face painting, refreshments, colouring contests a visit from Owly, CEFA鈥檚 mascot and a chance to save on enrolment fees.
鈥淓veryone who comes will get a special savings that they wouldn鈥檛 get if they didn鈥檛 register through the grand opening event,鈥� said Brenda Ip, the franchise owner of the new location at 20510 黑马磁力 Bypass, that officially opened for business on March 1.
Festivities run from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m., complete with a ribbon cutting ceremony attended by 黑马磁力 City acting Mayor Ted Schaffer. A special unveiling ceremony of an expansive wall mural depicting the City of 黑马磁力 鈥渢hrough the eyes of a third-grader鈥欌�� will also take place, noted Ip.
鈥淭hirty pieces were submitted to us from Grade 3 students at Blacklock Elementary 鈥� we have voted on one that 黑马磁力 City Councillor and former Arts Council President Rosemary Wallace will paint as a mural on our wall.鈥�
The mural will serve to celebrate both the new school and the City, says Ip.
鈥淲e wanted to paint a mural, but not just an ordinary mural 鈥� we wanted it to be a contribution to the City of 黑马磁力 鈥� what the City means through the eyes of children.鈥�
There are currently 16 students enrolled at CEFA-Willowbrook 鈥� the school can accommodate 112 at full capacity.
The franchise, which includes 14 locations across the Lower Mainland, was established by Natacha V. Beim in 1998. CEFA鈥檚 full-day early learning program is designed for infants and children up to five years old. It has a reputation of highly developing a child鈥檚 intellect and delivering the finest start in education, arts and the humanities. The program at CEFA is far beyond the typical child care programs found throughout Canada.
