Our Elementary Summer Camps are weekly sessions designed for rising Grades 1-6 students. Each week includes a different theme with lots of STEM-filled fun!
What to Expect
Campers participate in a variety of hands-on STEM activities designed to encourage curiosity, creativity, and problem-solving. Throughout the week, campers return to a project they build on each day while also exploring experiences such as:
- Engineering Challenges – Build structures that meet specific goals, like supporting weight or protecting an object during impact.
- Scientific Experiments – Extract DNA from fruit, test material reactions in different solutions, and explore chromatography.
- Coding & Robotics – Learn programming basics using Finch robots and Spheros.
- Construction & Design – Create and test mechanical and structural models such as rubber band cars, hydraulic arms, catapults, and rockets.
- Outdoor Exploration – Enjoy nature walks, plant and tree identification, stomp rocket launches, and other outdoor science activities in our Outdoor Explorium.
