La Cañada Elementary School

Enrichment Programs

We are thrilled to share some of the wonderful enrichment programs that make our school a vibrant and engaging place for your child to learn and grow. At La Cañada, we believe in offering a well-rounded educational experience that nurtures both the mind and body. Here are some of the exciting opportunities your child will enjoy:

Weekly Campus Library Visits

Our students love exploring new books and discovering the joys of reading! Every week, we offer campus library visits, where students have the chance to check out books, listen to captivating stories, and develop a lifelong love for reading. We are proud to expand our reading options to include more Spanish books, as we try to maintain an inclusive environment.  Our library visits also encourage literacy skills and spark creativity in young minds.

Gardening

Gardening is an amazing way for students to connect with nature and learn about responsibility, growth, and sustainability. Each week, students participate in hands-on gardening activities, where they plant, nurture, and harvest their very own crops. Gardening also helps develop teamwork, patience, and a deeper understanding of the environment.

Physical Education

Our Physical Education (PE) program promotes fitness, teamwork, and healthy habits. Through a variety of fun and engaging activities, students improve their motor skills, coordination, and overall physical health. Whether it’s team sports, outdoor games, or individual fitness challenges, PE is an exciting way for students to stay active and build a positive attitude toward physical wellness.

Drama

Drama is an excellent way for students to build confidence, express themselves creatively, and develop public speaking skills. Our drama program encourages imaginative play and storytelling through fun activities like skits, role-playing, and even mini-performances. Students gain confidence in a supportive environment while discovering the joy of theatrical expression.

Music

In our music program, students explore rhythm, melody, and sound through singing, playing instruments, and musical games. Whether they’re tapping to the beat, creating their own songs, or learning to play a simple instrument, music helps develop critical thinking skills, creativity, and teamwork. It’s an enriching experience that supports both cognitive and emotional growth.

We are committed to providing a well-rounded education that nurtures each child's unique talents and interests. Through these programs, your child will have the chance to develop not only academically but also socially and emotionally, in a fun and supportive environment

Thank you for your continued support. We look forward to seeing your child thrive in these exciting programs.
