Our licensed and accredited program is designed to offer a relaxing and inspiring space for all of our students. This program is based on the needs of our students, they have the choice to work on short or long-term projects, get involved in team sports, sit back and listen to stories and to enjoy outside time on our playground. Older students have an option to participate in a leadership program focused on solving problems within the community. Nutritious whole foods are prepared for snack onsite by our own chef with many ingredients sourced from Peacefully Organics Produce.
