March 26 – April 4
Spring is waking up, and we're celebrating with a little science, a little art, a little adventure, and a whole lot of muddy fun!
Join us at OARS for a spring break filled with outdoor exploration, hands-on activities, creative challenges, and plenty of opportunities to learn through play. From woodland discoveries to Easter adventures, we'll spend our days getting curious, building things, experimenting, creating, and enjoying the great outdoors.

Learning Through Play. Adventure Through Discovery.
At OARS, we believe some of the best learning happens when children are free to explore, experiment, create, get messy, and follow their curiosity.
Activities will be adapted to weather and outdoor conditions, with a combination of indoor and outdoor projects as needed.
Come ready to get muddy, think creatively, explore wildly, and make some spring memories with us!
