Going
Out...
From Aidan’s youngest students to its oldest, cultural
events, visiting artists and enriching experiences are an
important part of school life. Toddlers may sink their fingers
into a small tank of sea creatures placed on the playground,
full-day Primary students may go out to see a performance
at the Kennedy Center or learn from a visiting artist, and
Upper Elementary students may travel to the Newfound Harbour
Marine Institute in Florida to study sea mammals, coral and
other marine life. “Going out” is an ordinary
part of life in a Montessori school where the world holds
much to see beyond its walls.
After
School...
Aidan’s after-school Discovery
Program expands on an already thorough curriculum,
in an atmosphere of high interest and relaxed companionship.
Students from full-day Primary to 6th grade enjoy
choosing from foreign languages, art lessons in specific
media, music lessons, informal sport and athletic
programs, chess, computer animation, and various crafts
such as knitting, needlepoint and calligraphy. Download a pdf of current offerings. For After School Chinese, visit www.hardagechineseschool.com.
The
after-school program is optional, upbeat and lots
of fun. Before and after-school child care is available
for children ages 3-12. This program includes all
the elements of creativity, fun and play with nurturing
supervision and support. A quiet space for naps is
offered for those younger children as needed, and
for older children to work on homework assignments.
