GNP
Granby Nature Preschool is a farm and nature preschool for 3, 4, and 5-year-olds based at Holcomb Farm in West Granby. We are a 5-day program for morning, afternoon or full day, except Fridays which are half day, with visits or visitors to/from local farms and nature trails.  We embrace outdoor living and learning, and plan to be outside for some part of every day except in extreme weather. Indoors in our space at The Barn at Holcomb we will enhance our learning through community living, relationship building, caring for one another and our plants, and with art, movement, music and storytelling activities.
 
Our program is 5 days/week half day or full day. (Our five-day program is a 4-day/½-day structure.) We are not offering part time options (for example 3 days/week) at this time.
 
Lunch Bunch Option 4 days
Lunch Bunch is a 1-hour social extension of the half-day programs to allow children community time with classmates and those in the other half-day sessions. Children bring their own lunches and share conversation and possible guided activities.
 
GNP follows the Granby Public Schools calendar.
