Primary Summer Program (Ages 3–6)

The Primary Summer Program is typically offered Monday–Thursday, half-day, beginning in the first week of July and ending in the second week of August.

Summer themes reflect the natural world and the spirit of the season, often including:

  • Gardening and plant care

  • Nature exploration and environmental learning

  • Art and creative expression

  • Animal care and observation

The program is based primarily in Brixham’s outdoor classroom and playground, which is home to the school’s small flock of chickens. Children also enjoy easy access to the school garden and nearby vernal pool, allowing learning to unfold through direct, hands-on experiences with nature.

This outdoor-focused setting supports curiosity, movement, collaboration, and joyful discovery.

Toddler & Elementary Summer CAMP Options

Summer programming for Toddler and Elementary students is offered on a more limited basis and varies depending on staff availability and enrollment interest. Dates and formats may differ from year to year.

Families interested in summer camp options for these age groups are encouraged to reach out early for the most up-to-date information.
