TODDLERS (Returning/Moving to Primary, ages 2-3):
Familiar faces and consistent routines form the basis of a summer of discovery for your child. Encouraged to explore and experiment, your child will learn by doing. Weekly themes are the jumping off point for crafts and fun. (9 a.m.—1 p.m.)
PRIMARY (Returning /Newly Enrolled, ages 3-5):
Your Primary child will enjoy exploring weekly themes by participating in exciting and varied activities. Similar to the school year, independence, problem-solving, and building community will be emphasized. As a departure from school days, we offer more creative and outside time, giving a truly different experience. (9 a.m.—1 p.m.) |
