After School Programs at The International Preschools

Mr. Doug leads a music class at our 86th Street location. You can join Mr. Doug in two after school programs this fall: Mr. Doug Music Academy and Chibikko Karate.

On Monday, September 16th, the after school programs at The International Preschools welcomed excited children into a variety of engaging classes. Enrolling your child in after school programs allows him/her to make new friends, practice transitioning between classes, and most of all, learn a new skill while having fun!

If you haven’t signed up already, there’s still time to join us!  Read on to see what we offer, why you should register your child for one (or more) of the classes, and finally, how to enroll!

Summer camp at The International Preschools is midway through its second week, and so much fun is being had by our campers! During the summer season, IPS focuses on increasing physical activity in both a structured and non-structured manner via play-based learning.  This, in turn, helps the children strengthen their gross motor skills and muscles, while allowing them to naturally regulate the energy in their bodies.  As a result, our IPS campers are stronger and have more stamina for all types of tasks.  Here’s a look at some of the adventures that the children are partaking in…
