The five-week Summer Playground program offers arts and crafts,
playground fun, organized games, field trips and other activities
Monday - Friday at the Chickering School. This program is great
for kids entering Kindergarten in the fall because they have the
chance to meet new friends and become familiar with the school.
The older kids also love this program because they are able to enjoy
fun, quality time with their friends! Whether your child is entering
Kindergarten or 6th grade, they will have the opportunity to meet
new friends, be a part of fun activities and games, and develop
their imagination through the importance of free play time. The
hours are from 9 am-12 pm. Registration
