Discover CKids After School
CKids After School is a child-centered, innovative educational program where your child will learn to read and write Hebrew, explore Jewish life and holidays, develop pride in their Jewish identity, and build long-lasting friendships.
Hands-On Learning, Lifelong Impact
Our hands-on, experiential approach fosters excitement for learning and a deep appreciation for Judaism. Our dedicated teachers are committed not only to teaching but also to learning alongside your child.
Inspiring Confidence and Discovery
Our teaching philosophy and cross-curricular learning opportunities inspire students to fall in love with discovery while solidifying their confidence and sense of self.
Expanding Our Reach
In November 2024, CKids After School expanded to a second location in Narrabeen, increasing accessibility for more families. Additionally, we introduced transportation services from local schools to our St Ives location.
A Welcoming Community
CKids After School is a contemporary learning center that caters to Jewish families from all walks of life. We warmly welcome families regardless of religious background, level of observance, or affiliation. While celebrating diversity, we emphasize Jewish values of family, community, care, joy, tradition, and rituals.
Family-Centered Events
More than just a program, we are a community. Throughout the year, we host exciting events that bring families together, including a family picnic, a Shabbat experience, and a family hamantachen baking activity.
Holistic Development for Children and Families
The program prioritizes holistic child development, family relationships, and a sense of community. Through collaborative partnerships with families and a commitment to Jewish values, we continuously enhance the learning experience, fostering growth for children and parents alike.
Government-Approved Excellence
Our St Ives program is a government-approved OSHC (Out of School Hours Care) for primary school-aged children (registered as 'Ganeinu-Gan Izzy'). Fully compliant with the National Quality Framework (NQF), it guarantees the highest levels of safety and professionalism. At our most recent assessment in 2024, we proudly received an "Exceeding" on the NQF rating.
