  • We designed our playground to appeal to your child’s boundless curiosity. There’s a greenhouse and raised beds for growing flowers and vegetables. Outdoor instruments like drums and marimbas for creating an imaginary band. A stage for putting on plays. And sand and shallow water areas for digging and making sand castles. All of our outdoor activities balance teacher-led instruction with plenty of free play.

  • The Grove School's building was deliberately redesigned to foster increased learning while being environmentally conscious. We use natural light wherever possible, which improves concentration and conserves energy. Recycled rubber flooring, sustainably harvested materials and low-VOC paint make the school a healthy place to learn while reducing our impact on the planet. We also filter both the air and water.

 
 
 

 How special it is to have a staff that has lived all over the world!  Today our Curriculum Lead and Lead Teacher, Ms. Stephanie, gave a presentation to the students of the Grove School of Cary about life and culture in Germany. 

Born and raised in Germany herself, Ms. Stephanie brought in a display composed of traditional costume, a German flag, a hiking cane with plackets, a German Christmas pyramid, a wooden accordion player figurine, books, photos, and even tapes of traditional German children’s music.

The students learned how to greet one another in German, how to say different colors, and how to count numbers one through ten.  They discussed how people dress, what the houses and the land look like, what kind of animals live there, and they even learned that most German children walk or ride a bicycle to school!
