HMLC mixed-age summer programming is open to children ages 3-6 and 7-10.
HMLC programming is designed to take place outdoors and as much time will be spent outdoors as possible.
HMLC operates under a community care model: We fully support our frontline healthcare heroes and work to keep them safe as well as reduce the number of kids and families with respiratory emergencies overwhelming medical facilities. We also support children and families who are immune compromised and with other high-risk medical conditions.
At this time, masks are required for all adults and children during any time indoors. All learners must reliably be able to wear a mask, when necessary. Masks are optional outdoors based on learner and family preference.
All participating children are required to be up to date on all vaccines (including COVID) at the time of participation.
Due to our small class sizes, space is extremely limited. Register today!

Ready to make it rain? We’ll be learning about the cycle of rain, doing some creative experiments and looking up to identify the clouds. We’ll also be exploring the power of the sun and experimenting with how we can use it!
WEEK FIVE - AGES 7-10 - July 17-21 - 10am-3pm - RECYCLING, REUSE AND POLLUTION (three days)
How can we take better care of the earth? What is pollution and how can we reduce our contribution to it? From creating useful things from recycled objects to taking litter collection walks, we’ll be spending the week coming up with clever ways to reduce, reuse and recycle — and encourage others to do so too.
