After trying for some time to find the right school and time for our 3.5 year old we were excited to find Native School. We are now about 1 month into the program and are thrilled with the enthusiasm and joy we see in our boy on school days. Each morning he attends he excitedly puts on his outfit and backpack and proudly announces to his brother he is going to Forest school with his friends. We had some hesitations with the timing of his first day of school as he is a sensitive kid and this program is the perfect fit for him. I would highly recommend without hesitation this program for any child.

The Native School has been amazing! We attended summer camp and enrolled for fall. My son absolutely loves going to school every day and always comes home with stories about exploring, discovering bugs, spotting butterflies, and playing with friends. The teachers are so kind and patient, and you can tell they really care. We love Ms. Tamara! I also love that they get so much time outdoors. It’s such a healthy, natural way to learn. We couldn’t be happier with our experience and are so excited to see what the year has in store.

My daughter absolutely loves this forest school program! She has already bonded with friends, tells us all about her fun & exciting adventures, is learning Spanish rapidly & is always asking when she can go back to school. As a stay at home mom of 2, I was hesitant to leave my babies in anyone else’s care. However, after one month of school… I am so relieved to see my girl is thriving going two days a week to forest school. Shannon is an incredible woman with 15 years of experience running the native school. Don’t let these reviews deter you if you’re considering sending your babes to the native school.
