Our engaging summer program—for the mind, body, and spirit of children age three through rising fifth grade—is open to all families, both within and beyond the WSL community.
Consistent with the mission of WSL, the program aims to cultivate in each child a sense of wonder and curiosity for the natural world, creativity, collaboration with others, and confidence to engage in new experiences. Children enjoy outdoor crafts, singing, dramatic arts, group games, water and nature-based play on our campus and in the nearby meadows and forest. Mixed age groups provide a welcome chance for new and lasting friendships across the grades. And true to the Waldorf ethos, we'll have fun rain or shine, so keep those rain boots handy!
