Hey Cardinals! Do you have a little one in grades K-3?

Summer registration is finally open! We’re so excited to be back for another year!

Six themed weeks at Forest Hill Park - Land Art, Wild Ceramics, Creek Exploration, Wild Discoveries, Builders & Makers, and Classic Games. Rising K-3rd graders, small groups, and the kind of Montessori-inspired programming where kids follow their curiosity instead of rigid schedules.
This is for families looking for something different than the big institutional camps. Long days outside, muddy knees, stories to tell - the kind of summer you remember.

We’re partnering with Forest Hill Presbyterian this year for indoor space during the hottest afternoon hours, because let’s be honest: last summer was hot!

$345 per week, 9am-3pm. Extended day available 8am-5:30pm for working families. Register for all six weeks and get one week half off with code YOWSUMMER.

Link in bio - I’d love to have your family join us this summer! ☀️

We are so excited to be back for another incredible Summer at Sabot!

🍃 If have any questions about what our programming looks like, please don’t hesitate to DM us at ! Or send us an email at [email protected]. We want to help you find the perfect fit!

🦎Looking for more info?

-Our camps are for ages 6-12!

-We used a Montessori-Guided approach, based on our founder Chris’ years of experience teaching Montessori!

- Most weeks of our camp currently don’t have more than ten students currently enrolled - you’ll have a hard time finding such small class sizes at any other Camp in Richmond! This allows us to prioritize the needs of your child specifically, every day!

Thank you Sabot for extending us your campus! We can’t wait to see all of you this summer!
