The first thing that we noticed was that they began to play together, cooperatively. The second thing was their imaginations as they began to find simple objects and develop a story around them. Most recently we have been pleasantly surprised with their self-control and manners which we know we have had too little to do with. But the best indication for us is that they simply love getting up and going to school. We have another child on the way and as soon as possible they too will be going to Farm School!Farm School Parent

Our Rhythm
The rhythm of our day is inspired by Waldorf education including: outdoor activities such as farm chores, community & snack time, indoor activities and lunch and time for unstructured play. We work very hard to preserve the innocence of childhood and to develop rich creative play in our classrooms.
Our nature based curriculum focuses on a variety of themes that change with the months and seasons.
Sensory Experiences
In addition to the classrooms full of materials to support a child’s imaginative side, you will find many kits or trays of materials that a child may choose to experience. These activities develop fine motor skills, reasoning, math skills, and pre-reading skills.
Mixed-Age Environment
Children are grouped by age but our program provides many opportunities for mixed-age partnering throughout the day.
Creative Arts: coloring with natural beeswax crayons, modeling beeswax, watercolor painting, drawing, seasonal crafts, music, story-telling and puppetry.
