Cheerful Cherubs Preschool

A Small School
with a Big Heart

Cheerful Cherubs first opened its doors to children in September 1950.  It was the first church sponsored Kindergarten in Warner Robins.  More than 2000 children have graduated from Cheerful Cherubs Preschool.

At Cheerful Cherubs Preschool we will nurture the whole child in a fun and loving atmosphere; encouraging each child to develop his or her potential through new experiences including physical, emotional, social, cognitive, and spiritual.

Our teachers bring years of teaching experience and education to the program.  They are professional, loving adults who create a nurturing and challenging environment for your child.

INSTRUCTIONAL PHILOSOPHY
Children grow and develop at different rates and through different learning styles.  At Cheerful Cherubs, children are given the opportunity to explore, create and problem solve with materials that are developmentally appropriate.  Classroom activities are based on a play and task learning atmosphere.  Children are taught basic concepts through the used of games, puzzles, manipulatives, art and other hands-on experiences.  Our age appropriate learning objectives address the whole child with the goal of establishing a foundation and passion for learning.  Continuous assessment of each child's progress provides invaluable feedback to both the teacher and the parent.

CURRICULUM - Zoo-Phonics
Zoo-Phonics teaches the alphabet using a cast of animal characters, sounds, and body movements that directly relate to the animal/letter allowing children to utilize the alphabet immediately.

CURRICULUM - TouchMath
TouchMath follows sequential learning strategies advocated by learning theorists such as Jean Piaget and Jerome Bruner.  Students interact with numbers on paper by seeing, saying, hearing, and touching numbers.

CURRICULUM - HighReach
The HighReach Learning curriculum is based on the philosophy that children learn best through hands-on activities that address the needs of the whole child.  HighReach reflects the belied that children need a balance of child-initiated and teacher-facilitated activities each day.

SPECIAL ACTIVITIES

CHAPEL each week will focus on the basic Bible stories from both the Old and the New Testament.

MUSIC is a fun and interactive time at Cheerful Cherubs Preschool.  Children will participate in singing and playing hand instruments.

SPANISH is offered once a week to expose children to the language.  It focuses on Spanish colors, numbers, and basic vocabulary.
