Nature Preschool 2024-2025 School Year
-
PN1000
Heritage Park Nature Preschool at the Farmington Hills Nature Center is accepting registration for the 2024-2025 school year. The Nature Preschool is designed as HALF DAY nature-based school for ages 3-5. The M/W/F PM option will be designed as a Young Fives program for children ages 4-5. Children will spend the majority of their time outdoors, connecting with nature while experiencing research-based, age appropriate and meaningful curriculum. The per child, non-refundable pre-enrollment fee guarantees your spot, but your registration is NOT FINAL until you select your tuition payment option and all required forms are submitted. Parents will receive an email indicating the required forms, along with the Family Handbook. Parents will also get an email from ePACT requesting emergency contact information. The Nature Preschool will run approximately Sept-June with a quarterly or discounted annual tuition payment option. If you choose the 5-day option, you will need to add both the M/W/F & T/H classes to your cart. You will need to select AM or PM. The 2nd registration fee is waived at checkout. The Nature Preschool program is expected to fill quickly, but enrollment will be open throughout the year, as class capacities allow. If a class is full, we encourage you to add your child to the waitlist and we will contact about enrollment.

NOTE NEW DATE is Sat. Jul 29 (NOT Jul 22 as printed in the Activities Guide)
Join the Farmington Area Optimists Club as they host the annual Kids Fishing Day! We provide each child with everything they need for a successful and safe fishing experience, their own high-quality rod and reel, stocked tackle box, informational & activity packet, fun how-to videos and live bait. Families can choose which time they would like to arrive for curbside pick-up of their fishing supplies in the Founder's Park Ice Arena. Families can then head out to any local fishing spot (a list of suggestions will be provided) OR join our volunteers at the Founder's Fishing Pier (west entrance) for in-person fishing practice. Supplies and practice are available to pre-registered families only. Please limit your fishing practice to the time you've registered for (1 hour or less) to allow space for other families.
