SUMMER FUN PROGRAM

Although our school is a year-round program, we transition to a Summer Fun Program from the 2nd week of June until the end of August to switch gears to a program enjoying more of the outdoor classroom with a closer look on at our environment, both around us and beyond our back yard and neighborhoods.

-Water Play starts June 20th-August 22nd during outside play time

Each child needs to bring a bag labeled with their name that includes a towel, a change of clothes (underwear, top/bottoms), and water shoes to put on before going outside. Please include a bag for wet clothes (plastic grocery bag works well). Girls can wear their swim suits under their school clothes. Please do not send them to school in only a swim suit. Boys may wear swim shorts and bring a pair of shorts to change in to later. Please remember to apply sunscreen before school and send a bottle to keep in-house for later reapplication. Water shoes will be put on just before going out. Shoes with a back or closed toe are preferred to flip-flops.
