The Children's Center of Austin - Westlake

Sometimes the best part of a school event is hearing it from the kids themselves.

Our Westlake students had plenty to say about the petting zoo — from favorite animals to funny sounds, fast-moving moments, and all the little reactions that make hands-on learning so much fun.

We love seeing their curiosity, confidence, and personalities shine.

Summer learning, CCOA style. ☀️

Our Westlake students are exploring, playing, creating, and growing through hands-on activities, outdoor fun, and special summer moments.

Learning does not stop just because it’s summer. 💙

Learning looks different here — and sometimes, it comes with goats, turtles, lizards, and lots of curious little faces.

Our Westlake students had such a special time exploring, asking questions, meeting animals up close, and learning through real hands-on experiences.

These are the moments that make early learning feel exciting, memorable, and full of wonder.

Field trips, classroom projects, songs, routines, friendships — it is all part of the learning experience.

At Children’s Center of Austin, our curriculum helps children practice the skills they need in the classroom and out in the world. From listening and following directions to creativity, independence, and social confidence, we love watching our students grow through meaningful everyday experiences.

Pre-K graduation is more than a ceremony — it is a celebration of growth.

These students have spent the year learning, exploring, making friends, building confidence, and becoming so much more ready for the next big step. Watching them grow from the beginning of the year to now has been such a joy.

Congratulations to our Pre-K graduates! We are so proud of you. 💙🎓

25 years of Children’s Center of Austin means 25 years of first steps, big smiles, classroom discoveries, friendships, celebrations, and families who have become part of our story.

We are honored to be part of so many children’s early years and proud to continue serving Austin families with the same warmth, care, and community spirit that have guided us from the beginning.

Congratulations to our Pre-K graduates! 🎓

We are so proud of this special group of students and all they have learned, explored, and accomplished during their time with us. Watching them grow into confident, curious, kindergarten-ready learners is one of the greatest joys of what we do.

Thank you to our families for trusting us to be part of these early years. We can’t wait to see all the wonderful things our graduates do next!
