Tobin Afterschool
At Tobin Afterschool, we provide a warm, enriching environment for your child after school, during school vacations, professional days, snow days and early release days. Tobin provides transportation from your child’s school to Tobin Afterschool. On early release days we provide a pizza lunch with milk and fruit. At Tobin we provide a variety of teacher-run activities for children including Music, Animal Science, Spanish, Mandarin, Italian, Zumba, Cooking, Theatre, Gardening, Track, Sports, Arts & Crafts, Homework Assistance and more!
We’ve also tried to lighten the rush to cram all your activities into the weekend. We offer Golf Lessons, Swimming Lessons, Kung Fu, Bowling and Ice Skating Lessons for an extra fee. Our Tobin Afterschool teachers always accompany the children during their lessons.
Summer at Tobin
Our unique "choose your days, choose your weeks" flexibility provides your child with the option to attend all week or only the days you want. Open daily 7:00am-6:30pm. Come join us for some serious summer fun!
Summer at Tobin provides a traditional summer day experience complete with sports, swimming, arts & crafts, and field trips – and we can't wait for summer to begin! We have a partnership with Hale Reservation, which offers the perfect backdrop for a summer of outdoor exploration and learning. Situated on 1,100 acres of unspoiled woodlands, winding streams, extensive hiking trails and scenic ponds, Hales "backyard" consists of two large playing fields, a private swimming beach, outdoor activity pavilions, an arts and crafts cabin and a lodge – all of which a child can enjoy 2 days per week.
We maintain a low child-to-counselor ratio all summer so that children are provided with greater individual attention. We also provide small group sizes with limited enrollment in each age group.
