About

Summer at Peninsula offers a three- or six-week summer experience that brings summer staff traditions like edging and uniquely Peninsula games to life. The program invites children entering kindergarten through eighth grade to explore their interests, build new friendships, and make memories in a caring, supportive, and natural environment. Summer childcare is only open to Summer at Peninsula participants, and there is no drop-in for summer childcare, preschool, or daily programs.

Summer preschool is only open to currently enrolled Peninsula preschool students, including those starting preschool in the fall. Students from outside the Peninsula School community are invited to register and attend Summer at Peninsula. Children should bring their own packed lunches, snacks, and water bottles, and any medications must be in original packaging with instructions, shared with teachers and directors, and listed on the child’s emergency contact and medical information form.

Summer at Peninsula classes are staffed primarily by year-round teaching staff and Peninsula School alumni who previously trained as summer interns. Peninsula School is an independent preschool–8th progressive school that nurtures the whole child, builds upon children’s natural curiosities, and prepares students to become confident contributors in the world. For 100 years, Peninsula School has served as a beacon of progressive education and creates a space where children develop their full promise in an inclusive community rich with choices, exploration, and play.
