SUMMER PROGRAM

"The secret of good teaching is to regard the child's intelligence as a fertile field in which seeds may be sown, to grow under the heat of flaming imagination."

- Dr. Maria Montessori

Tuition and Fees

A summer program is also offered for enrolled primary and elementary students their siblings, alumni and rising primary students. Each session revolves around a theme. Concepts are explored through daily science experiments, art projects, cooking and outdoor activities. An extensive variety of activities will span the weeks of the program. The daily routines and work time of the school year will continue and the children will have the opportunity to receive lessons and progress through the classroom materials.

Our summer program features a wide range of flexible scheduling options to suit each family’s unique needs, including:

The choice of number of weeks to attend, from one to seven
Half day program (9 am to 12:30 pm) or full day (9 am to 3:30 pm) options

We strive to inspire, challenge and excite students as they explore their talents, develop new friendships, or simply adjust to a new classroom. Our camps include something for everybody!

This summer, our Primary children will go on Animal Adventures, traveling around the continents and exploring the animal groups that are found there. What makes them unique? How do they live? Each week will bring a new adventure. We will also be making our own snacks each day and our own lunch every Friday using foods from our own land! Come join the fun for just one week or all seven weeks.

Elementary students can participate in one or both of the following sessions:

MathMagicians and the Science Behind it All. We will explore the scientific and mathematical background of the everyday world. Join us and learn about a variety of amazing mathematicians, scientists and engineers that have given the world a range of mind-blowing and delicious creations. Everything from groundbreaking geometric structures and naturally occurring sequences in nature to baking secrets, root beer brewing and wild experimentations will be explored throughout this two week session. Feel free to join us for one or both weeks! July 8 - 19
Growing Up Green. A week long summer adventure exploring the natural world. Fun, hands-on, science-based activities in the garden, greenhouse and schoolyard, with a focus on biology. We will garden, learn to identify plants and trees, build a habitat for animals, and explore alternative energy. Learn about the important role of trees in our ecosystem while performing experiments and even learn to measure huge trees without leaving the ground. This camp is for kids that love the outdoors and are curious about the natural world. Come learn about growing up green! July 22 - 26
The Science of Legos. A whole new way to use Legos to discover science. Each day during this week long camp we will focus on a branch of science, such as Chemistry, Biology or Physics, perform hands-on experiments, then use Legos to further explore that topic. For example, when we study Biology, we will do experiments with plants and then learn about the process of photosynthesis by using Legos to model it. A fun combination of familiar building blocks and exciting science concepts. Come discover how Legos can expand your love of all things scientific! July 29 - August 2
