A “catered” tea, and an “expert”-led afternoon of crafts and fun for 2-5 year olds and their parents. The “experts” and “caterers” will be Salmonberry School’s Kindergarten class. These children (along with their teacher, Linda Ellsworth) invite the Orcas community to an open house on Thursday afternoon, January 20, from 3-5 PM.
Salmonberry School is celebrating its tenth anniversary this summer and is planning a series of events to celebrate. The first of these events is this preschool and Kindergarten Open House. Come and try out the Salmonberry Garden’s brand new play loft; sample some homemade treats and spend some time in imaginative play and craftwork. Come and experience a dynamic holistic approach to early childhood education.
The Salmonberry Garden is now enrolling children for spring semester, and it’s not too early to reserve a place for fall 2011. Salmonberry remains the only island school to offer a pathway from age 2 ½ all the way through the elementary grades. Salmonberry offers an amazing intimate family-like setting in which to begin your child’s educational journey. Kids at Salmonberry connect deeply with each other, with nature, and with their own interests and passions. So come meet the teachers, administrators and children and find out what all the excitement is about.
