Having fun on the playground. Once again, Garden City Nursery School will be running its popular summer program for children ages 3-5. This program offers flexibility and convenience for busy families while providing an enriching environment for preschoolers over the summer months. The six week program runs from June 29th through August 7th with options in terms of number and configuration of weeks (a minimum of two weeks registration is required). Running from 9:45 am to 12:15 pm, this relaxed and varied program offers plenty of engaging activities for children to enjoy, including: arts and crafts, music, stories, and water play in the sprinkler and wading pool. A healthy snack is included and no parent participation is required. Located adjacent to the Garden City Pool, the morning program allows families the ease of picking up their children from camp and then spending an afternoon together poolside.

Children who have completed a 3 or 4 year old nursery school program are eligible for three days a week —Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Children who have completed a toddler program are eligible for two mornings a week — Tuesday and Friday. A certified teacher heads each group and a certified music teacher is on staff to work with all the children.
