Core Education & Fine Arts (CEFA), Canada's first Junior Kindergarten School, was established in 1998 in the city of West Vancouver, British Columbia. CEFA's program has an excellent reputation of highly developing a child's intellect and delivering the finest start in education, arts, and the humanities. All Teachers are trained Early Childhood Educators who are further trained and certified by CEFA Educational Systems to become specialized Junior Kindergarten Teachers. In 2002, a franchise model was put in place, and the Founder, Natacha V. Beim, incorporated the franchise company CEFA Systems Inc in 2004. The first franchise was purchased that same year, with many more opening throughout the subsequent years. CEFA's programs are available to infants and children up to five years old. It presents each child with every possibility to discover and challenge themselves and their own potential, introducing them to Reading, Writing, Math, Science, Languages, Music, Physical Education, Visual Arts, Dramatic Arts, Yoga, Culture Immersion and Dance.
