St. Ambrose Sea Breeze School seeks to promote social, emotional, academic, physical, and spiritual development of young children through a varied and stimulating program in a secure nurturing environment.
Sea Breeze School provides cognitive learning experiences that include reading and math readiness, language arts, and awareness of the world around us. The teachers encourage creativity and self expression through the use of dramatic play centers, music and movement and art activities. Supervised play, indoor and outdoor, is offered to develop large and small muscles and hand-eye coordination. Spiritual development is promoted through weekly participation in Chapel Services. Chapel Services are 15-20 minutes in length and are planned and conducted by the Chaplain. At Sea Breeze we celebrate and come to know God’s presence in our lives through prayer, story and song. All children and faculty are encouraged to attend their own place of worship. Students are accepted without regard to race, sex, color, national or ethnic origin.
Sea Breeze School occupies five large, well-designed classrooms. Our outdoor areas include a big secured courtyard facing our main classrooms, a playground with climbing equipment, and a beautiful grassy area for running. The yard is shaded with ultraviolet ray-blocking umbrellas. Sea Breeze is licensed by the State of California Community Care Licensing Bureau and maintains high standards of quality childcare.
School Year The school year begins in late August and usually extends through the middle of June. A summer session is available. Our holidays align with those observed by the San Mateo/Foster City School District’s traditional school calendar. A school calendar is published in June.
Special Events Parties, special activities, holidays, and individual birthdays are celebrated with classroom festivities. Sea Breeze parents traditionally provide refreshments for these occasions.
Snacks Nutritional mid-afternoon snacks are provided by Sea Breeze School. We offer milk, juice, and a variety of wholesome foods representing all food groups. Special attention is given to children with allergies.
