Canterbury Creek Farm Preschool 3.69

Our 11 acre farm, with its woods, Nature Trails, fields, child planted gardens, fruit trees, barnyard and schoolhouse, provides opportunities for a vast amount of meaningful first-hand learning experiences. Our 3 hour days may include activities such as planting, caring for, harvesting and preserving foods, tracking wild animals in the snow, and watching the birthing of baby animals and caring for them as they grow. Observing insects and their habits, making our own butter, cheese or applesauce are also part of the program.

Individual Growth in the self, social and cognitive areas is stimulated through varied activities, including creative dramatics, arts and crafts, music experiences, puppet plays, creative movement and science experiments. Pre-readiness reading, writing and math skills are presented in a relaxed, fun appropriate format to match varied developmental needs. Special activities like horse rides, cookouts, hikes, and scavenger hunts provide added variety to our unique learning programs.

Our Philosophy is to help children gain love and respect for our world. It is our hope that they will develop responsibility for all living things, including their peers. We believe children can Learn about their community and about humanity outside, as well as, inside the classroom. Learn more about our class sessions or enroll today!
