Ms. Mole's School

**Ms. Mole's School** is a school located in Animal Town run by Ms. Mole. It is an early childhood school attended by many of Animal Town's young children, including Elinor, Olive, and Ari.

## Location

The school is located in the middle of Animal Town, away from the town's square. It is positioned between Elinor's House and Olive's House, and is down the path from Ms. Mole's own house.

Coming into front of the school, there is a small pond inhabited by various frogs and tadpoles, including Spotty. On the left side of the school, there is a playground with swings and a slide with a ladder and platform in which students can play on, and a bridge that goes over a water stream. There is also a small garden on the right side of the school for Ms. Mole and students to grow various plants. On the door of the school, there is a small bell held up by a rope used to indicate the start of the school day.

Inside the classroom, several cubbies and bookshelves are aligned along the side walls for student's bags and books, and two doors on the left side and back for students to enter and exit through. Ms. Mole's desk is positioned in the front of the room, with a rug in front for students to gather for class lectures. Next to her desk is a storage closet that holds various toys and tools for students to use, but is also used by Ms. Mole as a mushroom garden, as seen in the Follow That Roly Poly interstitional.

## Subjects

The school provides a variety of subjects and activities intended for young children. Children are taught skills and subjects either through being directly taught, such as being read about nature, or with more hands-on activities, with painting or playing sports. This allows children to learn from Ms. Mole's teachings, but also allows them to solve their own mysteries in-class or even in nature.

Alongside the teachings and activities, the school also provides lunch breaks and snack time for students to eat their food and regain energy during the day. In Ms. Mole's Glasses, it is mentioned that students are always provided milk to drink as a part of snack time. In addition, the school provides recess for students to play and have fun, as well as to freely explore the school field.

## Trivia

* In beta designs of the school, the building uses a tree and plants to hold the building's roof, with branches going inside the classroom. Students would be able to interact with the tree and the animals inside, and could use it to hang things as well.
* Based on Ari's watch in The Seed of an Idea, the school day starts at 9 AM, with a half-hour class session, followed by recess. The duration of recess and the rest of the day's exact schedule is currently unknown.
