This is a good moment to update with a few pictures the status of the new and permanent location of the John XXIII Montessori Children's Center at White Oaks Farm.
Things were busy during the month of August and work continues and will continue until the Center opens in two weeks. The new property includes two barns and several acres of land. We're looking forward to new activities in practical life skills, gardening, farm work, and other outdoor activities.
Here are a few pictures of how things are shaping up:

| From early August: main building from the back (top) and the two barns with fields and woodland area (bottom) |

Front corner of main building: lots of space for environments. Below, a view of the front lawn. 
The careful work of setting up the environments has gone well and continues. This Montessori child looks happy!
Kids from the new Adolescent Program working on new windows in one of the barns. They'll do lots of good work here.
Under the shade of this pine tree, the shrine for well-weathered Mother Mary takes shape.
And the Good Shepherd watches over us all.
