Developing a better way of learning

Join CEFA Early Learning in South Surrey – Panorama

CEFA South Surrey Panorama is more than a daycare or traditional childcare centre. CEFA Early Learning opened its first school over 20 years ago in B.C. and is now Canada’s leading private school for children ages one to five. Trusted by parents since 1998, CEFA has earned a reputation for developing intellect in the early years, and for providing children with the finest start in education, arts, and the humanities.

CEFA students develop and play along with other children who are the same age, and they are always learning and playing—not just learning, and not just playing. At CEFA, core fundamental skills are at the heart of our curriculum.

We offer an incredible opportunity and and enriched curriculum for students to not only explore and learn, but to discover how they can contribute to the world.

At CEFA’s South Surrey preschool, children learn while surrounded by peers of the same age, similar to the Canadian elementary school system.

CEFA’s South Surrey preschool at Panorama is committed to offering the highest level of education and development for your child.

Why chose CEFA South Surrey Panorama? It starts with our personal commitment to you, the parents, of building the most qualified and respected school in Surrey. We have built a team with over 40 years of CEFA certified experience in education and 65 years of early childhood education. We have hired a Red Seal chef whose professional training and development results in the creation of the most nutritious and creative menu for our children. We have a Registered Nurse with 10 years of local experience who is responsible for ensuring the children’s safety and wellbeing. We have a Principal, Vice Principal and teachers who specialize in Mandarin, Punjabi, Korean, Filipino, Cantonese and French ensuring we have the language abilities required to commentate with both parents and children where English is not their spoken language.

Our investment in one of the largest schools in Surrey and White Rock with over 15,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor space results in almost double the square foot requirements of space per child than other schools, allowing for the most ideal classroom sizes for personal growth. For children under the age of 36 months, our large school not only allows us to group children by birth year, but with 2 classrooms for each baby and JK1 program; we can further separate the children to groupings within 6 months of each child. This maximizes the learning potential for your child by ensuring all children in the classroom are at similar development stages. Come join us for an open house and learn for yourself why we are the World Leaders in Education for Children Ages 1 to 5.
