Summer Enrichment Programs
“Nothing without joy!”
Loris Malaguzzi
Let your child experience the joys of summer at The Valley School’s Reggio-inspired Summer Enrichment Programs. Our individualized summer enrichment programs for children ages 2 to 6 years old, offer developmentally appropriate activities that will enrich your child’s learning while encouraging curiosity and inspiring creativity. For the youngest of children, infants ages 6 weeks to 2 years old, we also offer regular full day and half day hours, 7 PM to 6 PM. Your child will be encouraged to explore his or her interests in collaboration with new found friends. Every child will be given the opportunity to express him or herself through one of our age appropriate early childhood Summer Soccer, Japanese, or Art programs “…a hundred, hundred, hundred more.” The Hundred Languages of Children, Loris Malaguzzi. Be sure to ask about our age appropriate Summer Enrichment Programs. They are expected to fill up quickly.
We provide our programs utilizing 13,000 sq. ft. playground. Our secure playground, nestled along a babbling stream, serves as an extension of the classroom where children will participate in outdoor art projects, gardening, soccer, and explorations in nature. As a Reggio-inspired school, we believe that children learn best through relationships. The Valley School encourages children, parents, teachers, and citizens within the community to participate in every child’s growth and development. Therefore, an important part of our Summer Camp program will include an outreach component where people within the community, such as senior citizens, fire fighters, police, mail workers, and more, will be invited to build bonds with our children and collaborate on projects.
The Valley School Summer Enrichment Programs are scheduled during two flexible five week programs. Your child can join us for the entire summer or for just half of the summer. Each summer program child will participate in a culminating celebration of his or her summer accomplishments with family and friends! Please give us a call to get the summer schedule and learn how your child can experience the joys of summer at The Valley School!
