Afterschool June 18, 2024

CGK Afterschool’s Summer School program is just around the corner!

We are particularly looking forward to this year as many teachers from CGK Preschool and CGK Elementary School will be running activities as guest teachers bringing their unique ideas and styles to share with everyone!
