The Faculty of Science offers Science Rocks! Summer camps every year in July and August. Designed especially for kids going into Grades 4, 5, 6, and 7 for the upcoming Fall. These camps are great fun and an awesome learning opportunity for campers!
Stay tuned! Registration for Science Rocks! 2023 summer camps will open soon
Each of our camps run from 9-4 each day, with drop off between 8:30-9 am and pick up between 4-4:30 pm. Lunch and a camp t-shirt are included with camp fees.
This is by far the best camp we have ever enrolled our kids into!
2023 Summer Camp Themes
Each camp week will be organized around a central theme. Each day one or two activities will focus on that week's theme. Over the course of a given week, campers can expect to experience activities from Physics, Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, Agriculture and Computer Science. Many of the weeks will also include activities from Geography and Kinesiology. 3D Printing is also worked into many of our camps!
