The project based learning activities are amazing there is no traditional school that will teach him how to tan a deer hide or build a fire with just a flint and steel. He is not restricted to sitting at a desk and is allowed to explore his environment with guidance from his mentors.
There is always something they come back talking about whether it’s something the built in the woods, a whittled stick or learning how to make beeswax torches.
My 10 yr old LOVES these camps. Only organized program that he has ever unequivocally LOVED and thrived in like this.
Winter camp really helped us break out of a rut and open our eyes again to possibility.
Learning should be fun. Not all learn best in a classroom setting and white ash provides what the public school system lacks in this way.
I couldn’t be happier with Clover’s experience with White Ash Learning, the value it adds to her life to just be a free kid in nature supported by loving individuals is invaluable. If you’ve been considering sending your little one, I highly reccomend you do!!!
My sons have been enjoying the program immensely. I hope you continue to offer it!
I really can’t even measure how meaningful Clover’s experience has been with White Ash Learning! It’s super awesome. Keep being your wonderful selves. Clover is so happy.
Our children have experienced interactions with other children of all ages that would not have been possible for us outside of White Ash. They have learned healthy boundaries and the importance of communicating with their peers.
The four years with White Ash Learning has helped my son learn to interact in (more) cooperative, creative and confident ways with children AND adults. So glad to see this collaborative, creative, confident, enthusiastic being emerging
