After School Clubs

AABC learners enjoy interesting and unique clubs guided by learners or outside experts.

Learners Clubs

Every session learners can host a weekly after school club of their choice.

The learners will create the content, invite their friends and guide the club.

Each session you can find clubs in different domains that the learners are passionate about

like Lego Building, Sports, Board Games, Slime, or Video Editing.

Registration is done every session through the school's Admin.

Learner clubs will take place daily between 3:15 - 4:00 pm and their cost will be $10 per meeting.

Experts Clubs

Home Lab Adventure

An exciting and fun-filled science club where young learners will explore the wonders of science using everyday materials commonly found at home! Through hands-on experiments, they’ll discover how science can be fun, engaging, and spark their curiosity in creative ways.

The club will be guided by Moran Raveh Resh, a highly experienced science educator. Moran brings extensive expertise from her previous work at the Davidson Institute of Science Education, the educational arm of the Weizmann Institute of Science.

Wilderness Survival Skills

Learn how to survive in the wild! We will cover the basics of wilderness survival skills through a series of games, crafts, and challenges. Each session will cover new skills that will inspire creativity, confidence, and respect for Mother Nature.

The clib will be led by Zach Fisher, the founder of Vulpes Wild Arts, a survival school in Northern New Jersey. Zach has been teaching and practicing survival skills in the tri-state area for 15 years.

Exploring Art

In this club learners will try different materials and techniques in art! Materials will include acrylic paint, clay, watercolors, and mixed media. Techniques will include drawing, painting, printmaking, making, collage, and sculpture. Learners will get to explore their creativity and grow their love of expression!

This club will be guided by Marie Antonelli, a guide with a love of nature and many years of experience in art education. Marie holds degrees in art and art teaching from Yale University and The School of Visual Arts.

Children Business Fair

The club will focus on entrepreneurship and developing a business idea into a product or service to market/sell at the Children's Business Fair on May 17.

The club will be led by Ashley Edwards, a guide at AABC who helps prepare the learners for the business fair each spring. Ashley holds a bachelor's and a masters degree in education from Pace University School of Education.

Musical Theatre

In this class, learners will be introduced to the core components of musical theater: acting, singing, and dancing. Each week will include warm-ups and activities to help build confidence, teamwork, and performance skills, while keeping things fun! We will end our time together with a short showcase presentation for parents

The club will be guided by Tori Palin is a New Jersey–born singer and actor with a BFA in Musical Theatre from Montclair State University. Tori performed worldwide with RENT (national and international tours), Jersey Boys, Little Women, Harmony, and A Thousand Faces. Tori is passionate about guiding young performers and help them hone their craft, trust their instincts, and grow as artists.

Little Builders Club

Building confidence, one tool at a time.

Step into a world of hands-on fun! Explore cool tools, discover their superpowers, and practice using them safely with friends.

Clogged bathroom sink? Loose door handle? Wobbly chair? Or maybe your room could use a fresh look? In this club, you’ll learn how to measure, hammer, screw, paint, and fix everyday problems while building projects you can be proud of. You’ll pick up handy skills to help your parents at home and see how fun it can be to take care of your own space.

The club will be guided by Pavel Chaploutskiy, a learner's father with over 20 years of hands-on experience in construction and house maintenance. Pavel makes learning tools exciting, safe, and confidence-boosting—showing kids how minor fixes can make a big difference.

Explore nature with clay

In this club learners will use clay to make functional, decorative, and aesthetic items. Learners will explore different sculpture techniques and use air, dry clay, acrylic paint, and Mod Podge. They will create works inspired by nature, drawing on real-life references and their own imagination.

Carpentry

In this club, children will explore the fundamentals of woodworking in a safe, hands-on environment. Focusing on basic skills like measuring, sanding, hammering, and simple joining techniques, students will create practical rustic projects such as birdhouses, small stools, toolboxes, and more—building confidence, creativity, and problem-solving along the way. Safety is our top priority: all participants will use child-sized real-hand tools under close supervision, wear protective goggles, and learn proper tool handling from the start—no prior experience required.
