PLAYSCHOOL GRADUATION: Dear Forest School Families,
You are invited to our first official Nature Playschool Graduation! Join us as we honor the growth, courage, curiosity and friendships that blossomed and bonded among the trees this year. From mud kitchen moments to climbing our mulch hills to watching the seasons change, our graduates have grown as wild and wonderful as the natural spaces we are so lucky to learn in.
We’ll gather for snacks, smiles, a special ceremony, and joyful send-off celebration for our amazing students as they take on their next big adventure or break for the summer season.
Come celebrate the magic of a childhood outdoors and the completion of the 2025-2026 school year.
With muddy hands and full hearts, Your GGFS Teaching Team.
*Date: May 16th, Time and Locations Details to come!
