Brooks School Day Camp Half Day
The Group One half-day experience is developmentally designed for our youngest campers. A carefully crafted half-day schedule allows for a balance of free play and guided instruction.
The early experiences in a child’s life determine the trajectory of a child’s enjoyment of learning and future social development. With this in mind, your child will engage in a wide array of activities led by a dedicated team of counselors whose background and passion are working with young children. The Brooks School Day Camp will help your child make social connections and develop a sense of self. Each two-week session is themed to spark joy and imagination that will enhance your child’s experience. Brooks School Summer Programs seeks to nurture the whole child by developing physical, social, and emotional skills to ensure that our youngest campers feel valued as individuals and supported as they grow in every way.
The Brooks School Day Camp half-day program offers many benefits for children who have just started school or will be starting school. Families have found that the half-day program can make getting ready for school less stressful. The less stressful it is, the more fun your child will have and the more they will enjoy it in the upcoming years as their schooling continues. An added benefit of the half-day camp is that it allows you to spend time in the afternoons with your young child.
