Encouraging Curiosity

Children are naturally curious.

Encouraging children to ask questions, look for answers, and discuss their findings is a key part of our time together.

Fostering Wonder

Children delight in the world around them.

Fostering a sense of wonder within the child happens through being excited, engaged, and observant.

Promoting Growth

Children are capable and trustworthy.

Promoting growth in the child by recognizing their strengths and abilities by offering them space to become who they are.

Confidence through collaboration and teamwork

The outdoor elements provide so many opportunities for your child to embrace a new challenge. Through hands-on learning, your child is more likely to remain engaged and to practice collaboration and work together with others to achieve a common goal.

Empathy genuinely expressed through exploration

While our programs encourage your child to become independent in their quests, it is also important to us that we promote and foster empathy towards each other. We spend a great deal of time building genuine relationships based on mutual respect, trust, and care.
