Dogwood Class
With an emphasis on outdoor, imaginative play and exploration, students begin to show independence in the Redbud Class. As students hike uneven terrain, climb, and balance on stones, they develop gross motor skills. We play nature-connection games to expand our senses. Nature journaling and wildcrafting tune our fine motor skills. Sharing, listening, and problem-solving introduce teamwork and develop community.

Dogwoods 2025-2026
for students age 6*
This class will meet three days per week (Monday, Wednesday, and/or Thursday). You can choose to enroll your child for one, two, or all three days. The weekly theme will remain consistent, but each day will offer unique learning experiences and activities. This allows you to customize your child's level of nature immersion.
Mondays 10:00am-2:00pm
Wednesdays 10:00am-2:00pm
Thursdays 10:00am-2:00pm
**AGE NOTE* Redbud (age 5) and Dogwood (age 6) courses are combined during enrollment. Classes will be split based on student age. You will learn your course placement prior to Family Welcome Night.
