A Multi-Cultural Journey through a Farm Based Curriculum!
  • We build future global citizens by discovering the world around us through an international and multi-cultural curriculum. 
  • The journey begins in our own backyard, travels through our neighborhood, and then to the world around us. The final voyage for our Pre-Kindergarteners is to blast off to Kindergarten, ready and prepared. 
  • Students benefit from a mixed age group including our 3yr old Nursery buddies through peer learning, leading, following and participating cooperative work and play. 
  • A classroom set inside a barn on a 5 acre farm with a focus on sustainability, farming, animals, organic foods and hands on learning makes for a loving and inspiring atmosphere. 

Children connect with the environment and  learn the importance of sustainability while  participating in our composting and recycling program. Each day they feed left overs to our chickens while eggs are brought back to our kitchen. In the kitchen we use math and fine motor skills while baking a healthy, organic treat. In the spring, compost goes into our garden, seeds are planted, we tend and nurture then  look forward to harvest time.

A multi-cultural curriculum allows for discovery and exploration. By learning from different cultures, students develop their individual and global awareness and build essential lifelong tolerance and acceptance skills.

"Today, I will be kind to the earth. I will eat healthier foods for my body and I will encourage others to make better choices for the environment "

Ready for Pre-K?
We empower children's independence through their daily interaction with our farm animals.

We develop organic, cumulative and age-appropriate lesson plans that grow with the classes' interests and abilities. We encourage children's ownership of the program and maintain an emotionally and physically nurturing environment, which enables freedom for children to explore and a foundation for a lifelong love of learning.

Developing or maintaining connections with their friends, teachers, and all their animal friends on the farm will provide much needed comfort for continued growth. Developmentally, Pre-Kindergarteners' social and emotional proficiency serves as a foundation for all learning. With developed relationships with their teachers and friends, the learning can take place with this essential socialization groundwork. Building on skills obtained, while developing new ones, this program will continue to nurture children’s innate curiosity and eagerness to learn.
