Our goal is to involve the children in fun outdoor activities that will enrich their understandings of our relationship to our natural environment. Teachers will guide children in a unit involving them in observing these animals and comparing them to determine their characteristics. Animals that are collected will be released at the end of the unit.
In addition, your child will enjoy splash pools, sprinklers and outdoor play on our cedar deck with a fully equipped outdoor playing area with a synthetic grass base. This base provides maximum cushioned flooring to increase your child’s safety. Our indoor areas are fully air-conditioned. During indoor periods campers may enjoy free play with assorted board games, music, and story time. The classroom is arranged in different centers for the campers to enjoy diverse experiences.
* Indoor rainy day playroom for inclement weather.
