Live Music
Worship Arts Pastors from Hillside Reno Foursquare Church play live worship music for our students four days a week! This helps children learn the sounds and meanings of words, and dancing to music helps children build motor skills. Not only is singing and dancing to live worship music fun, it teaches our children that they have a heavenly Father who loves them!

Soccer
We partner with Soccer Shots to offer an engaging children’s soccer program with a focus on character development. Our caring team positively impacts children’s lives on and off the field through coaching, communication, and curriculum.

Tennis
We partner with Buddy The Ball to introduce children to the game of tennis, and create a pathway for players who want to continue with the sport. That means teaching them skills and guiding them to the next level.
