Our Approach

At Creekhouse, we believe in nurturing the whole child through nature-based, project-driven learning.

Core Structures

We center learning at Creekhouse around three key structures that support deep engagement and natural development.

Deep Work Block

Extended time for focused, uninterrupted learning where children can dive deep into projects and follow their curiosity.

Nature Time

Daily outdoor exploration that connects children with the natural world and provides space for physical activity and discovery.

Community Circle

Regular gatherings where we share, reflect, and build meaningful connections as a learning community.

Our Philosophy

School should be a nourishing, fulfilling place where children can be children. They are supported in following their curiosity and interests, finding what excites them through focus sessions and creative blocks.

We believe in protecting childhood—giving children time to roam outside when they need it, make friends and play, and explore the community around them.

Our mixed-age environment allows younger children to learn from older peers while older children develop leadership and mentorship skills. This mirrors natural family and community structures where children of all ages learn together.
