Sustainable Practices:

We encourage campers to practice eco-friendly habits like recycling, composting, and reducing waste. 

Green Crafts

We promote creativity and artistic expression while using sustainable materials like recycled paper, fabric, and wood. Our craft projects include making birdhouses, creating natural plant dye, and building wind turbines.

Farm-to-Table Cooking

We believe in the importance of healthy, sustainable food choices. Our campers learn about organic farming and participate in hands-on cooking activities using fresh, local ingredients. They also learn about food waste reduction through composting and food preservation techniques.

Environmental Education

Our program includes educational sessions on environmental topics like climate change, pollution, and conservation efforts. We also invite guest speakers from local environmental organizations to share their expertise with our campers.

What is your preschool’s philosophy?
Our philosophy is rooted in the belief that every child is a competent, curious, and creative individual. We embrace the Reggio-Emilia approach, renowned for its emphasis on child-led exploration and expression, and blend it seamlessly with the rich traditions and values of the Jewish heritage. We believe in the power of ‘mindfulness’ – a core aspect of our teaching – which enables children to develop a deep awareness of themselves, others, and their environment. We help children become aware of their feelings and voice their needs.
