AFTER CARE PROGRAM
Providing a strong rhythm to carry the children through a joyful day.
The CWS After Care program is designed to support parents and children by providing flexible and nurturing after school options for children of all ages. After Care provides an essential care option for working parents; it also offers after school fun, enrichment, and support for families looking for an engaging and screen-free way for their child to spend free time after school hours.
For information about enrolling your child in After Care, please contact our Business Manager, Libby Rupp, at lrupp@cinciwaldorf.org. Contracted after care is provided at a discounted rate and guarantees that your child's space will be held. To book single day drop-in After Care sessions as space allows, please see the schedule information below!
Early Care
12:00-3:00pm
Early Care holds Preschool and Kindergarten children for the entire afternoon, from lunch and story/rest time through indoor free play and outside recess.
12-12:30 Lunch. Early Care includes Lunch Bunch where students enjoy a packed lunch (or a homemade school lunch prepared by Chef Lex) with their classroom teacher and classmates.
12:45 After lunch, Preschool and Kindergarten children transition to rest time in their classrooms. Preschool children are encouraged to nap, while Kindergarten children hear a story and are offered beeswax to mold as a quiet rest activity.
1:30 At the end of rest, Kindergarten children play quietly inside and then transition to outdoor fun.
1:45-3:00 Outside, Kindergarten children finish their day with digging and building in the sandbox, running and playing, climbing and rope swinging, as well as helping tend the After Care garden. Preschool students transition to the preschool play yard at 2:30 for outdoor play and dismissal.
The cost for Early Care by the day is $28 and we currently only accept drop-ins for kindergarten students, as availability dictates. To schedule regular, contracted Early Care for your preschool student, please contact Libby Rupp.
