Core programs

Frogs

for 3 to 5 yrs

The Frogs are our youngest explorers. They meet two half-days per week. They have to be fully toilet-trained, and able to attend independently from their parents.

Coyotes

for 6 to 10 yrs

Coyotes get to observe and use first hand the knowledge they are learning in their regular schools.

Dragonflies

for 4 to 6 yrs

Dragonflies meet once each week, for a 7-hr day packed full of adventure and fun. Everyone needs the stamina to keep up, without needing an afternoon nap.

Wolves

for 10 to 12 yrs

The play of wolves is more collaborative and complex.
Pre-requisite: One year of prior experience in forest school.

Foxes

for 5 to 7 yrs

The Foxes program is great for more mature or experienced Dragonflies or young Coyotes who still enjoy the imaginative games of the younger kids.
