Our program is designed to allow time for exploring, experimenting and discovering spontaneously. The teachers facilitate learning experiences by answering questions and encouraging the child's natural curiosity to stimulate their thinking and seeking. Back to table of contents. The ASI Children's Center offers a summer program for school age children, called Poly Trekkers. Trekkers, as the name implies, are a very active group of children.
Staff provides opportunities for crafts, field trips, sports activities, and a good deal of fun.
One of the goals is to take full advantage of a wide variety of experiences offered on the Cal Poly campus. Some of the most popular activities have been trips to the Chumash Challenge Ropes Course, a tour of the plastics and packaging plant and a visit to the Mustang Daily, just to mention a few. This ten-week program is included in the Center food program. Back to table of contents.
