PROGRAM

Monday - Friday 9am–3pm with Ages 3-8

All Friends Nature School is a place and play based nature school. We are full nature immersion. No day is ever the same. Each child brings a back pack with snack, lunch, water bottle, and a change of clothes. We do not teach children what to think. We want them to have their own experiences and develop their own ideas. And to try those ideas.
