At Brookfield Academy we want you to have peace of mind that your child is enjoying their day and learning about the seasons, celebrations, holidays, and the arts. Throughout the year we plan a variety of activities, parties and even offer several onsite enrichment classes.
Some of the special events we celebrate include our annual Fairy Tale Ball, Easter Egg Hunt, and Pre-Kindergarten (K4) graduation. Each classroom also holds monthly themed parties throughout the year to foster socialization and creativity.
The enrichment classes are conducted by independent contractors that use our facility, and are available at a nominal monthly charge. We want to help you avoid driving your child to different after school activities, and be able to spend quality time with your child in the evenings. To learn more about these activities please check with your child’s classroom.
The onsite activities that are currently being offered at Brookfield Academy are:
