Child Only Class

Meet at Lake Rebecca Park

Fee $ 9/per class

Each week we will study some aspects of the wonderful world of nature and the great outdoors. Classes are held outdoors each week unless we contact you due to inclement weather conditions in which case, the class will be held in CEC Room #219. If it is rainy and drizzling make sure your child is dressed in rain gear (raincoats, boots, hat). Because your child will be attending an outdoor classroom, there will be additional requirements to make the learning experience successful and positive for all students. Your child should come wearing only tennis shoes or boots (NO OPEN-TOED SHOES OR CLOGS OR SANDALS). Children must be completely toilet trained.

Sign up for one class or all FOUR!
