Our child care programs, summer camp, and forest school are child-centered and inquiry based.
About the program
School Age Programs: Grades 1 to 3
School agers at this stage can be eager to take on new challenges and experiences and be proud of their accomplishments. They have individual interests and abilities and often spend time practicing and improving their skills. In our lively programs, our educators encourage children to set goals, make plans, celebrate achievements, and to approach challenges as opportunities to learn.
School Age Programs: Grades 4 to 6
School agers at this stage generally progress from playing alone and in small groups to having multiple friends and social groups. They may enjoy competition and have more interest in forming clubs. Our educators model respectful and positive social interactions while acknowledging children’s growing need for independence and time with friends.
