Camper Campus
The Camper Campus offers a gentle introduction to school starting at 24 months. It also hosts Pep’In, a twice-weekly program for 18–24-month-olds and their caregivers.
Nestled in the heart of Venice, the space is a secret garden for young learners, providing an intimate setting that encourages hands-on discovery, connection with nature, and joyful collaboration. Children paint beneath the trees, sing and play in the open air, and learn through sensory experiences that invite exploration and creativity. The campus’ garden and atelier spaces reflect the school’s core values: respect for the child, the natural world, and the beauty of artistic expression.
Tucked just off Venice’s vibrant Abbot Kinney Boulevard, this campus welcomes children entering the next phase of their Ecole Claire Fontaine journey — a stage marked by growing confidence, imagination, and independence.
Here, children learn through art, song, movement, and shared discovery. Their days unfold in bright studios and shaded garden spaces, where they collaborate on projects, care for their environment, and find joy in creative expression.
Located off Victoria Avenue, the Fontaine Campus is the largest of Ecole Claire Fontaine’s three campuses and offers the final step in your child’s journey with us. Here, children build upon the foundations of creativity, language, and collaboration developed at the Camper and Abbot Kinney campuses, stepping into a world of deeper curiosity and confident self-expression.
The Fontaine Campus offers Transitional Kindergarten (TK), Kindergarten, and First Grade curriculum through ECF’s ACME courses. These classes offer more structure to ensure the internalization of language, math, sciences, music and art, while balancing every child’s needs to explore the natural world and play freely. This equilibrium ensures students are prepared for their follow-on education while simultaneously honoring this special season of life.
