The Woodward school year finishes at the end of May and most Woodward students return to Woodward for June Group as a fun and carefree way to begin the summer.

The program is taught by Woodward staff, Monday through Friday. The daily routine is structured with a curriculum that is based on weekly summer themes, integrating cooking, music, art, and stories. The summer theme continues on the playground with water play.

Sign-up forms for June Group are made available by February of the current school year.


This is our second year at Woodward and we continue to be very happy we enrolled our children here. The teachers are very experienced, the environment is warm and friendly, and the overall mood is calm. In the Explorers program my daughter learned phonics and writing, thrived in French class, and developed a love of science through various creative experiments that the teacher organized, and (very telling ) came home excited about EVERYTHING. My little star (2s program) spent his days learning to share and care about others, while cooking and singing and playing games, following a very well designed curriculum. Overall we’ve been incredibly impressed and happy with our experience at Woodward.
