Rochester One Planet Afterschoool program offers interesting and exciting activities for children who would like to participate in something fun and educational after school hours. It is open to all children K-5, both to all who sign up for a whole session and to those who would like to drop in any given day as long as we have their permission/medical records on file.
We try to offer as much outside time as possible and this is what our schedule normally looks:
2:45 - we meet at the end of the Elementary School hallway, by the library
3-3:30 - outside play/sports, weather permitting
3:30-4 - nutritious snack and homework
4-5 - enrichment program (Session I description below)
5-5:30 - choice time: legos, transformers, board games, coloring, reading, crafts
Session I Enrichment Program schedule:
Monday - Feel Better with Yoga and Herbs: Alexis Houston explores benefits of a basic and consistent yoga routine each week highlighting one pose that compliments the herbal tonic we will prepare. As each week progresses students will work on our Healing with Herbs books, identifying each herb, drawing it and listing its properties.
Tuesday - Spanish Fiesta: In this exciting new class students will explore the culture, traditions, language and art of the Spanish culture. Activities will include games, dancing, physical activity, cooking and more.
Wednesday - Minds in Motion: Shawn Lenihan returns to after school this fall with STEM focused class that gets kid learning and connecting with nature. Students will spend lots of time outside exploring our fields, forests and the creatures of Vermont and the critters that live there.
Thursday - Fall into Artworks: Using fall as a focus, students can create art based on natural inspirations. Leaves, autumn colors, wood that is beginning to appear again, all can be utilized. Activity will include ceramics, drawing, painting and forming creations with natural materials.
Friday - Student/Staff Led Programming: One Planet strives to make sure that we provide choice and listen to student voice. Therefore we feel it is important to provide a day a week, when possible to provide the students room to explore other areas where they have an interest or a passion. Whether individually or as a group students get to do some programming their way!
