Scope Note: Hobbyhorse began in the 1979-80 academic year as an after-school program for Lower School students, by Susie Heller '69. It was designed to meet the needs of both children and the increasing number of working mothers (approximately 40% in the Lower School at the time Hobbyhorse was created). Workshops such as drama, baking, puppetry, gymnastics, woodworking, and other activities are offered to reinforce skills learned in the classroom.
