Our Purpose
Happy Day Learning Center is a ministry of Centralia Community Church of God, since 1979. Our Learning Center is passionate about providing your children with the tools they need to be successful in all aspects of their lives. We are designed to assist families who desire an educational experience with age-appropriate activities and social interaction with a Christian foundation. We provide a safe, secure and friendly environment for children ages 16 months-12 years, 11 months of age. We cultivate the cognitive and social development of each child through fun learning programs that promote creativity and curiosity, language and vocabulary skills, critical thinking, and positive social interactions.
Our Staff
Every person on staff is dedicated to providing the highest quality of education for each child and supporting the families participating in Happy Day Learning Center with strategic approaches to the student's unique learning styles. All staff of Happy Day Learning Center undergo an extensive interview process, including thorough state required fingerprint and background checks before being hired. All teachers are required to maintain current CPR and First Aid certification, as well as HIV training and Food Handler's permits through the State of WA. Lead teachers and assistants also attend ongoing state-required training throughout the year.
Our Curriculum
We offer various levels of curriculum that are balanced and carefully supervised by the director to best assist each individual child in his or her learning process. We incorporate children's Bible study and Biblical principles within the daily lesson plans.

Nope! We participate in the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) with the USDA. Thanks to this program, we are reimbursed a portion of our food costs for following specific guidelines. This allows us to serve nutritious meals and snacks to children in our care.
