FULL: Nature Pre-K - September 2022 to May 2023 Registration Fee
Nestled among 67 acres of Rock Hollow Woods, our Nature Pre-K Program immerses children in the outdoors while providing a caring and positive atmosphere. Through hands-on discovery and inquiry-based learning, with Michelle Zeitz, a certified elementary and special education teacher, children will explore, discover, and grow with all that nature has to offer. Themed activities are both child-centered and teacher-guided, and place a focus on the process rather than the product.
We believe that play is an essential method of learning and are inspired by the Reggio Emilia Approach. Daily routines encourage active participation, meaningful experimentation, and reinforcement through repetition while balancing structure and free choice. Children will be exposed to a wide variety of educational opportunities that encourage self-expression, communication, logical thinking, and problem-solving, all while preparing them for the intellectual, social, emotional, and physical challenges of the future.
Our Nature Pre-K Program is appropriate for pre-K children ages 4 to 5 (must be 4 by August 31st.) It will be held on Tuesday and Thursday mornings from 9:30 a.m. - 12:00 p.m., running from September 6th, 2022 through May 18th, 2023.
