*ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS NOW FOR OCT – MAY

Nature.

Nature breeds curiosity and improves every aspect of physical + mental health. Research shows that children who spend just 60 minutes daily playing outside in unstructured natural environments develop significantly greater creativity, focus, memory, and problem-solving skills than their peers, as well as improved physical development, immunity, steadier heart rates, and calmer moods. (Nature is Nurture)

Nurture.

At our nature school, children lead the way. We believe every feeling has a place here – big emotions are welcomed, honored, and gently guided. By meeting children exactly where they are, we open the door to authentic growth and discovery. Surrounded by the wonders of the natural world, they learn not only about the earth beneath their feet, but also about themselves and their deep connection to the world around them.

Children learn through doing; it is how they explore the world, learn to assess risk, try things out, and get to know themselves. Play builds executive functioning, language skills, critical thinking, empathy, resilience, and social-emotional development – all of which are foundational. This is bigger than Kindergarten readiness; this is LIFE readiness.
