The Catoky Nursery School Program is designed to encourage a balance of child initiated and teacher facilitated activities. It offers children a variety of choices provided within a carefully prepared indoor and outdoor environment. Emphasis is on learning through play in an environment planned to encourage discovery, independence and social interaction. In order to develop self-esteem and social competence, children are encouraged to help themselves, take initiative, and become increasingly independent. The environment includes art, dramatic play, unit blocks, manipulatives, language arts, books and songs. Our goal is to encourage each child's natural curiosity and interest in learning. We feel it is important for children to actively participate in the learning process, and therefore provide many opportunities for learning by doing, for both indirect and direct acquisition of new knowledge and skills.

Catoky International School was established on the 4th day of March, 1998. The school vision was born out of a deep concern to contribute to the progress of Primary Education in Nigeria. Deaconess Comfort A.O Ajayi whom God gave the privilage, started Catoky International School. She appreciates the benefits of quality education - all round education of the highest standards. Using her God given resources, she moved on to fashion a christian school that will train pupils in wisdom, knowledge, stature and in favour with God and Man. The school started with 4 pupils and 3 members of staff in the 1998/1999 academic session in her temporary site at 17 Obagi Street, GRA Phase II, Port Harcourt and by the special grace of God the number has increased in leaps and bounds over the years. Over the years, a lot of children have passed through Catoky and some are in various prestigious Institutions of Higher Learning both in Nigeria and Outside the country.
