Enrichment Program Overview
Providing a strong Montessori education is our core mission at Austin Children’s Academy. Our goal is to guide and encourage children to embrace a love of learning as they are nurtured in an academically stimulating environment set up just for them.
Why Enrichment?
We offer a variety of recreational extracurricular activities for the “off” hours. This is because play is at the heart of the Montessori philosophy, and vital for physical, cognitive, social, and emotional development. Play gives children the opportunity to explore freely, relieve stress, and put into action the social and emotional lessons developed in the classroom.

The Knight School: Chess Club

This “Little Geniuses” program, geared for kids ages 3 to 5 years old, is nothing like your boring old high school chess club. It’s a once-weekly, 45-minute, high-energy introduction to the mind-bending game of chess involves singing and dancing, puppets and tourneys, and playing for Mardi Gras beads.

Tuesday, 3:00 pm to 3:45 pm (2-3 years), 3:45 pm to 4:45 pm (4-5 years) from Sept. 24th to Dec. 17th
Your kids will get an active introduction to eight different sports in this semester-long multi-sport program. Whether they’re learning the basics of soccer, baseball, basketball, football, hockey, volleyball, golf, or tennis, your kids are sure to get a great workout and come home with a few new skills. What sport will they like best? What better way to find out?

Anyone who has ever seen a child leap with joy knows that kids instinctively express their emotions not just with words, but also with motion. Kinderdance®, a dance, motor development, and fitness program, has at its core the philosophy that music, dance, and movement can be used as a tool for learning. With the aim of building confidence and self-esteem, the program introduces the joys of ballet, tap, acrobatics and creative movement.
Along with Kinderdance®, we also offer Kindergym®, a floor gymnastics program that emphasizes fun. Using jumping boards, balance beams, octagons, and wedges, kids develop gross motor skills and overall physical fitness while absorbing lessons about colors, numbers, words and shapes.
