Pine Forest offers a holistic, play-based program for young children aged 3 to 5. Emphasis is on imagination, nature, and social-emotional growth. Predictable daily rhythms, artistic activities, indoor and outdoor play are all critical components to support the healthy development of thinking, feeling and willing, head, heart and hands or body, mind and spirit.
The early years focus on imaginative play, storytelling, music, movement, nature exploration, and practical work. Nurturing classrooms and gentle daily rhythms help children feel secure while developing socially, emotionally, and physically. These experiences build wonder, resilience, and lasting love of learning.
Elementary School children are inspired deeply by their feelings and by the beauty of the world around them. They respond powerfully to the tools and methods used at Pine Forest School, which engages their feelings through music, art, movement, and drama, and enlivens learning through in-depth study of a topic using an experiential, hands-on approach.
