How to enroll

01
Step 1: Get in touch
Call, text or write. We answer within a day or two and send the next family evening.
02
Step 2: Book a tour
Tours are forest mornings. You walk out with the group, see the barn room and meet the teachers. Children can come along.
03
Step 3: Apply
A short application, then a conversation with the director about the days that suit your family.
04
Step 4: Hear from us
Offers go out in late March. If a program is full, you join the waitlist and we write as places open.
05
Step 5: Register
Accept the place with the school. We ask privately for the forms we need, and nothing medical goes through this website.
06
Step 6: The first day
New families come to an orientation walk in August. On the first day, we walk out together and you wave goodbye at the barn door.

Write to us or ask on a tour.
