After-School at Spence's Farm
Our
After-School program is designed to give
children the opportunity to decompress,
complete their homework, and learn-by-doing.
The beautiful, open farm environment helps
children feel centered, calm, and happy.
They are well-supervised, free to move
around outdoors or in, help out in the barn,
or just read a book! Nobody misses their TV
or Wii – why would they when they can go
feed the goats, throw a clay pot, or hang
out in a tree when they’re done with their
assignments?
After-School on the Farm is centered in
the main farmhouse and in our extensive
out-buildings and grounds. Children receive a
healthy snack and receive help and supervision
with homework. From 4 – 5:30 each day they can
choose which focused activity they wish to do
(i.e. work in garden, play in the yard, do
crafts, cook from the garden, hike, work with
the animals, and more! You may also add in
Enrichment Classes such as pottery,
horsemanship or woodshop for an additional fee.
Children have choices!
How it Works … You get to decide what
works for you! You can sign your child(ren) up
for just one day a week, Monday through Friday,
or anything in between! As long as within Farm
policy you can even change your schedule without
penalty. We make it work for you.
Schedule & Logistics … made easy!
After-School hours are from 3 to 6 pm each day.
