Tour

Brookwood School is excited to announce its upcoming Open Classrooms event for prospective families.There's nothing like seeing Brookwood faculty and students in action! Our open classrooms event is designed for parents who are interested in visiting classes and experiencing a morning at Brookwood. Kids applying to grades 5-8 are welcome to join their parents, if interested. A full schedule of classes will be available during the event and will feature a variety of disciplines and grade levels.

Join The Trustees of Reservations for an afternoon hiking tour of Choate Island. What could be better than a Choate Island hike AND picnic? This special spot is the jewel in the crown of the Crane Wildlife Refuge, and is only accessible by boat. Join us for a rare chance to explore the cultural and natural history of this treasure. Participants will be led on a modest trek that will go past the Proctor Barn, White Cottage, and Choate House before landing all the way to the top of the island where spectacular views await. A picnic lunch (sandwich, fruit, cookie, drink) for each participant will be prepared by our award-winning Inn at Castle Hill.

Have a wonderful time watching for whales and seabirds on a trip with naturalists from Joppa Flats Education Center out of Gloucester aboard the Privateer IV. Aside from marine mammals, we will look for storm-petrels, gannets, jaegers, terns, gulls, and phalaropes. Most trips will head to the productive Stellwagen Bank.
