This summer our Lower School students will split the day between academic learning
and fun.
TreePeople
Take a journey to discover the forest that exists within our city. Hike along the
trails of Coldwater Canyon Park and learn about water, mulch, natural resources
and trees through hands-on exploration. TreePeople’s Magical City Forest Eco-tours
are fun, age-appropriate learning adventures.
Aquarium of the Pacific
Take a journey of discovery through the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach, California.
All Lower School students will head to the Aquarium of the Pacific for a day of
fun and learning. Ties in with "Ocean Wet & Wild" theme week.
Swimming
Lower School students will swim every week at the Sierra Madre pool. Children who
are new to swimming will receive instruction and "floaties" will be available.
Gymnastics
Beginning the second week of summer, Lower School students will go to a local gymnastics
studio for an afternoon class every Monday to learn cartwheels, somersaults and
other basic gymnastics moves.
Sleepover at Le Club Gymnastics
This gymnastics program is so fun it'll have you doing cartwheels! We'll start by doing a
combination of sequences of movements requiring physical strength, flexibility, balance and
endurance such as handsprings, handstands, split leaps, aerials and cartwheels. Students
will walk the balance beam, practice pullovers, run and jump using the vaulting board and
swing from the P-Bars and High Bars. Your child will feel a sense of accomplishment as they
settle down for a pizza party in the super amazing 10,000 square foot facility. The large
foam pit will undoubtedly be the highlight of the evening before snuggling into sleeping
bags. In the morning students will enjoy a hearty breakfast before heading back to the school
campus.
Horseback Riding
We'll lasso up the buckaroos and head on down to the Griffith Park Corral for a bonanza of a
good time. Younger wranglers will ride the ponies in a fenced area while the older desperados
will ride the hills on their broncos! Afterwards there will be no time for siestas. We'll be
too busy sippin' sasparillas in Travel Town. Giddy up!
