Prepare for ORVIT ↓Hawthorne, FloridaOutdoors · Rain or shine
Before you arrive
Nature is part
of the experience.
ORVIT programs take place outdoors, rain or shine. Children should arrive ready to move, explore, create, and work with the natural conditions of the day.
A little preparation makes that freedom possible. Comfortable clothing, the right footwear, water, and weather protection help children participate fully and confidently.
What to wear & bring
The everyday
essentials.
Footwear
Soccer is the first Discovery Lab activity. Arrive in soccer shoes if available, or secure closed-toe shoes or boots.
Lunch & snack
Bring a packed lunch and snack for Discovery Lab and free-trial mornings.
Weather
Wear clothes for outdoor movement and pack sunscreen, a hat, and a light rain jacket when needed.
Arrival & dismissal
A calm beginning.
A clear handoff.
Consistent routines help children feel secure and allow the ORVIT team to focus on a welcoming, purposeful experience.
Arrival
Please arrive a few minutes early so your child can check in, settle into the group, and begin on time.
Parents are welcome
Parents and guardians are welcome to stay, observe, and enjoy the ORVIT setting for the day. For children age six and younger, a parent or responsible guardian is required to remain onsite throughout the program.
Dismissal
Children are released only through ORVIT’s supervised dismissal process. Please notify the team in advance if another authorized adult will pick up your child.
Food & personal needs
For Discovery Lab and free-trial mornings, pack a lunch and snack. Share relevant allergies, medical needs, or accommodations during registration.
Belongings
Label water bottles, clothing, and personal items. Bring only what the day requires so children can stay present in the experience.
Safety, supervision & weather
Thoughtful care.
Clear communication.
ORVIT experiences are supervised by a prepared team with coaching and teaching experience, relevant professional certifications, and completed background checks for team members working with children.
The team monitors weather and site conditions throughout the day. Activities may be adapted, paused, or moved to an appropriate protected area when conditions require it. If a schedule changes or families need to act, ORVIT will communicate directly with the registered parent or guardian.
Parents should include accurate emergency contacts, allergies, medical information, and any support needs during registration so the team can prepare responsibly.
Payment & attendance
Clear expectations.
No surprises.
Eligible families may use Step Up For Students scholarship funds for approved ORVIT services. Select Step Up during enrollment to receive the next steps.

Recurring tuition is charged at enrollment and then monthly on the same calendar date.

Cancel anytime before the next renewal date to prevent the following charge.
