La Marina Preschool (Manhattan Beach) is an early childhood centre offering care and early education for children from infancy through kindergarten, with full-day options and extended-care hours noted for some programs.
La Marina Pre-School in Manhattan Beach operates an early childhood centre serving children from infancy through kindergarten. The centre provides full-day care and extended-care options on days when programming is offered.
The centre follows a child-centered curriculum with monthly themes. Instruction and activities are designed to develop language, social-emotional skills, fine and gross motor abilities, and pre-academic readiness; teachers plan classroom calendars and maintain portfolios or periodic reports on children’s progress.
The centre provides morning and afternoon healthy snacks and asks families to supply a labeled lunch and certain nap items. Families are asked to provide a change of clothes; full-time children are asked to bring a fitted crib-size sheet and small blanket in a labeled pillowcase, with nap sheets sent home weekly for washing. The centre requests that bottles, bottle tops and pacifiers be labeled.
The centre offers additional extracurricular activities through partner instructors, including organized sports, gymnastics, dance and music classes.
The two-year-old class creates a happy and safe environment that emphasizes cultural diversity, crafts and activities while meeting the individual needs of each child.
The before-and-after school program provides supervised care beginning early in the morning through late afternoon/early evening; it includes drop-off and pick-up arrangements at nearby elementary schools, dedicated homework time, afternoon snacks and a variety of recreational activities.
The infant room (Sweet Peas) provides a comfortable, safe and loving environment with constant caregiver interaction, use of basic sign language to support communication, and a daily report for each child; each infant is assigned a crib for their stay in the room.
The all-day kindergarten program runs on a structured schedule (regular hours cited as 8:30–3:30, with extended care available) and uses a literature-based reading program along with handwriting, math and science instruction; small class sizes and periodic report cards and conferences document progress.
Pre-kindergarten classroom activities focus on language arts, basic math concepts, reading readiness, fine and gross motor skills, and social development; monthly calendars and daily homework are used to structure learning and responsibility.
