No camp July 4th and 5th.
Session Two
Four weeks: July 22nd - August 16th.

Curriculum
The summer curriculum is modeled after our early childhood school program and is for children ages 1–4. The program takes place in our classrooms and outdoors on our campus. Summer hours are Monday through Thursday, 8:30 AM - 4:30 PM, and Fridays, 8:30-3:30PM. We end our day on Fridays with Shabbat from 3:15-3:30PM.
Summer Camps are staffed by our highly qualified year-round Early Childhood Educators who will enrich your child’s learning with fun opportunities, lots of exploration, and hands-on discovery.
While incorporating Jewish culture and values into the program, we help the children to explore, grow, learn, and have fun! We use a thematic-based curriculum to enrich your child’s learning. Our daily schedule includes literature, art, music, science activities, outdoor water play, and on Fridays, our special Shabbat celebration. We will be outside for most of the days in our beautiful natural playground and on our JCA campus.
Please note: A minimum number of children is required to run the program, and registration will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis. We use mixed age groups whenever needed, per staffing. 2025 SUMMER IS FULLY ENROLLED.
GFP Summer Camp and Aftercare Abilities
We welcome children of varying abilities and will do our best to accommodate any special needs when possible. However, please be aware that our summer and aftercare program staff ratios do not always allow us to work with students who require a high frequency of one-on-one guidance and who have challenges outside of what is developmentally appropriate, such as following simple directions, staying with the group, and engaging in summer camp with appropriate and safe behaviors. We provide care and curriculum designed with the whole child in mind. School and auxiliary summer and aftercare programming also require different levels of physical/mental ability for children to be successful in group care. If you have questions about how your child's specific skills will affect their camp experience, please contact the Preschool Director to discuss the situation and devise a plan that will be beneficial for everyone.
