Gage Farm Schoolhouse

Morning and After School Care

Morning Care will be for children in Preschool-4th Grade with a drop-off Monday through Friday any time after 7am.

Students start their day with free play and spend time with friends making crafts.

There will be transportation available for all students who attend Bartlett School, New Boston Central, Riddle Brook School, Glen Lake School and Maple Avenue School in Goffstown. We are hoping to expand our transportation options as we continue to grow. Our vision from the start was to make things easier for all our working parents with one convenient drop-off in the morning and one pick up for your family in the evening.

After School Care is for children Preschool - 4th Grade and transportation is available to students from Goffstown, New Boston, and Bedford children attending Riddle Brook School. Students enjoy snack time upon arrival and then off to play, complete homework assignments and get some time outside with friends. Pick up is any time before 5:30pm, with a discount if picked up by 4:30pm.

When spending time outside, our aftercare students will enjoy time in our outside classroom, garden area, playing games down on our arena and taking walks on our nature trails that lead down to a brook that stretches across the back part of our 15 acre property. In the winter, you will see our students enjoying sledding and playing in the snow.

We also offer tutoring services in our after school hours with 1-on-1 instruction with highly qualified Elementary School teachers. Please click here for more information.

OUR MISSION

A love for learning begins at an early age and the potential of a child in their early education years is limitless. Director Sarah Stone has witnessed and supported the creativity and development of young children for 15 years before starting Gage Farm Schoolhouse in the classroom and in that time forged many meaningful relationships, while developing a profound understanding of what children need in order to thrive in an educational setting.

In her own children’s educational journey, Sarah found there to be a gap in options for full-time working parents to secure the childcare they require in an educational environment that engages the whole child with a focus on a love for learning and the outdoors. Local options that fulfi ll both of these key objectives didn’t offer full day options with morning and after school care. By opening Gage Farm Schoolhouse, Sarah aims to meet this need and provide a solution that not only benefi ts our school parents and children, but the community as a whole.

It brings Sarah pure joy to have the opportunity to revive an iconic property where she went to preschool in the mid-80’s that was once known as New Morning School and transform it into an innovative hub for early development, while retaining the charm and history of the place. Gage Farm Schoolhouse aims to be a lasting inspiration to all our students.
