Office of Family Engagement: Sibling Hangout (Age 5+)

Does your student have a younger sibling who’s attending Family Weekend? The Office of Family Engagement is hosting a Sibling Hangout that is sure to be a blast! With a range of fun activities, craft stations, and board games, it’s a great opportunity for Andover students and their siblings to enjoy quality time together. Please provide the age of the child(ren) and note that the minimum child age is 5 years old. Limited Space available.

Important Notes:

  • Students must stay with their siblings throughout the event, as it’s not a drop-off daycare.
  • If you are the primary registrant, please do not register yourself for the event. Please only register your student's sibling(s) who will be attending.
