| Summerfun is for current students, alumni, friends, and prospective students of the Mothers Day Out/Early School Program. This year, Summerfun will include games, stories, crafts, and other fun activities featuring The Lion King, The Jungle Book, and Babar the Elephant. Colors, size comparison, counting, sequencing, vocabulary building, and social skills are important parts of our everyday lives and our classes. Younger children learn from the older ones, and the older students build self-esteem by being big helpers. Summer birthdays can be celebrated at school, too. Summerfun gives families a break in the heat. It’s a great opportunity for the children to get together with school friends. For new students, it’s an ideal time to get acquainted with our school routine. Bring lunches as usual. (No naps – no resting mats needed.) The children often prepare a morning snack that reinforces the day’s theme. APPLICATION DEADLINE IS JUNE 1. | |

Cheverly Weekday Nursery offers developmentally appropriate activities and learning for children ages three to five. The program has been in serving the community and local families since 1970.
At Cheverly Weekday Nursery, we provide children with a place to grow outside the home, and help our students learn more about themselves in relation to other children, to adults other than the parents, and to the world around them. We strive to help children grow in the richest, most satisfying, most constructive way while preparing for the school years ahead. Learning is hands-on, and designed to develop independent thinking, self-sufficiency, social and emotional maturity, and readiness for kindergarten. Children enjoy multiple free-play areas (including water, sand, art, dramatic play, blocks, science, manipulative games and toys), story and music times, educational field trips, and more. In addition, children receive speech, language, vision and hearing screenings, personalized attention, and the opportunity to participate in annual Christmas and spring programs. Your child will be given the freedom to grow and learn in an environment balanced with enough guidance and structure for each child to feel secure.

About Mother's Day Out/Early School Program/Summerfun Program
Mother's Day Out and the Early School Program, started in 1977, offer a calm yet stimulating environment for early learning. We work to make your child's first steps from home to school a positive experience so that they will eagerly look forward to future school experiences.
Mother's Day Out, which meets Tuesdays 10:00am-2:00pm, focuses on expanding your child's knowledge and awareness of the world through stories, games, crafts and learning activities. Children in this program build self-esteem and security, develop appropriate interaction with other children, enhance large and small motor skills, learn to follow directions and become aware of their capabilities.
The Early School Program, which meets Thursdays, 10:00am 2:00pm, focuses on readiness skills. Curriculum for older students includes pre-reading, opposites, phonics, math and other age appropriate skills. Younger students focus on colors, shapes, rhymes and counting.
Mother's Day Out Summerfun program registration is coming soon! Eight sessions in July will explore "Jungle Life" this summer. This program is for children ages two through six, and is held Tuesdays and Thursdays, 9:00am-1:00pm. Application will be posted soon.

The Music at School series benefits the Cheverly Weekday Nursery and Mother's Day Out programs for young children. We bring a variety of music to children and their families in the Cheverly area, allowing them to experience live music performed by familiar people -- parents and other people the kids know. We encourage children to take an active interest in music, and families to pursue more opportunities to expose their children to a wide array of musical styles. In our first year, we've offered performances by classical pianist Naoko Maeda and rock band Soul Revolver.
We're looking
forward to more concerts next year, including performances by jazz musician
& composer Dino Efantis, and an encore show by Soul Revolver. Interested
in learning more about the series? Email

Thanks to the many volunteers who made our annual Truck Touch a great success again this year. We rely on this major fundraiser to help us keep our costs as affordable as possible to as many families as possible. Without the amazing support of the community, this event would not be possible.
