Studies have shown that time spent outside is good for our physical and mental health. Thankfully, it's also very joyful!
At our Retreat programs, our time together starts with a short walk to greet the chickens, quail and sheep and includes a seasonal circle time of verses, songs and stories. After an informal picnic (bring a snack--we provide the beverage), and an outdoor adventure, a brief puppet story will conclude our time together. You are welcome to continue enjoying the retreat centre grounds informally for the rest of the day as well if you like.
Seasonal adventures may include: a visit to the CSA garden, a wander around the labyrinth, a hop over to the beehives, time for tobogganing or building a fire.
Retreat classes will be held on Wednesdays for the fall and spring terms of the 2023-24 school year at Crieff Hills Retreat Centre.
9:30-11:00am
Class meets rain or shine!
Crieff Hills Retreat Centre (7098 Concession 1, Puslinch) is a retreat and conference centre situated on 250 rural acres and featuring a selection of wooded nature trails, several vegetable and flower gardens, a newly planted orchard, and a small flock of sheep in addition to chickens, roosters, and several hives of honeybees. Over the past several years the centre has dedicated itself to providing or restoring habitats for bluebirds, butterflies, and other pollinators.
FEES AND FUNDING
1. Siblings under the age of one may attend at no additional fee. A pro-rated fee for remaining classes will be charged once the child turns one year old.
2. Second siblings older than one year may register at a 30% discount.
3. To reflect underlying costs associated with running the program and in consideration of the current fee structure of analogous programs, we have changed our pricing model for the 2023-24 school year. This includes a price increase as well as a new self-serve sliding scale option.
To utilize this option, simply type TRILLIUM and a multiple of 5 at the end, up to 25. For example: TRILLIUM5 for a 5% discount, TRILLIUM15 for a 15% discount.
