A GCNS Heart made by nature
“Their minds were not built to sit and be taught. They were built to explore, play, and learn.” -Layla Gordon Lu
Children have an innate curiosity that leads to a love of learning and exploration. At GCNS, we understand this love and we help our children learn through play.

We will be closed for Winter Break from Feb 17th to Feb 21st.
