Children often wish to bring something from home to school to show their friends. We have no specific "sharing day", but items can be brought to show at circle-time. Leaves, animals, shells, rock collections, photographs of trips, etc. make good objects for discussion. Toys, especially those of a violent nature, weapons, and make-up are not permitted at school, and will be confiscated. Books for story-time, sand toys and outdoor athletic equipment are always welcome, provided your child is willing to share. Although we try to keep an eye on everything, we cannot be responsible for the items your child brings to school.

We take field trips at various times during the summer session. The first field trip of each session is relatively short, which allows any new students to be coached in, and to observe from returning students, how to travel as a safe and organized group. Our field trip groups regularly impress our hosts with their behavior and attentiveness.
