  • List of Camps and Activities: (Must pick at least 6)
    • ​Monday, July 10 - Build a Kite
      • ​Students will build a pyramid kite from scratch using tissue paper, straws, and string. Younger students will need kite templates premade and help tying knots, while older students will create their own templates and build the entire kite themselves.
      • Math related board games such as Sudoku, Chess, and 99 Board Game.
    • ​Wednesday, July 12 - Lego Mindstorm Coding
      • ​Using the LEGO Mindstorms robotics kit, students will learn to code and program their robots to move, sense their surroundings, and perform various tasks using motors and sensors. During the camp, students will troubleshoot and debug their code, and gain foundational knowledge in coding and robotics.
    • ​Friday, July 14 - Gumdrop structures
      • Students will explore the strength of 2D and 3D shapes. Then, students will construct a bridge using toothpicks and gumdrops to support as many pennies as possible.
      • Math related board games such as Sudoku, Chess, and 99 Board Game.
    • ​Monday, July 17 - Build a House for Ace
      • Students will be given materials and an incomplete set of instructions to create a house for Ace, plus a completed example. They will use their rulers and reasoning skills to figure out what the missing measurements and instructions should be.
      • Math related board games such as Sudoku, Chess, and 99 Board Game.
    • ​Wednesday, July 19 - Science Experiments
      • Using simple ingredients like food coloring, dish soap, paper towels, ice cubes, rubber bands, white vinegar, vegetable oil, and baking soda students will experience STEM challenges and science experiments that are fun and engaging.
      • Math related board games such as Sudoku, Chess, and 99 Board Game.
    • ​Friday, July 21 - Slime
      • ​Students will adjust the ratios in a recipe for slime and make predictions throughout the process of how the added ingredients will affect their slime's colour or consistency.
      • Math related board games such as Sudoku, Chess, and 99 Board Game.
    • ​Monday, July 31 - Marshmallow Spaghetti Tower Challenge
      • Students will construct a tower as tall as possible only using spaghetti and tape. Tallest tower wins!
      • Math related board games such as Sudoku, Chess, and 99 Board Game
    • ​Wednesday, August 2 - Puzzle Room
      • ​Students will work together to investigate for clues, decrypt secret messages, solve puzzles, and engage in creative problem solving and proactive solutions.
      • Math related board games such as Sudoku, Chess, and 99 Board Game.
    • ​Friday, August 4 - Maze Coding
      • ​Students will learn the building blocks of coding as they program "robots" to navigate through a maze. Students will act as "programmers" and "robots" as they write, run, and debug their code, and students at higher levels will explore the usefulness of functions in speeding up the coding process.
    • ​Monday, August 14 - Penny Boat
      • ​Students will construct a boat out of aluminum foil to float as many pennies as possible. Students will explore how the shape of a boat affects its buoyancy and how strategic, careful placement of pennies also makes a difference.
      • Math related board games such as Sudoku, Chess, and 99 Board Game.
    • ​Wednesday, August 16 - Lego Mindstorm Coding
      • Using the LEGO Mindstorms robotics kit, students will learn to code and program their robots to move, sense their surroundings, and perform various tasks using motors and sensors. During the camp, students will troubleshoot and debug their code, and gain foundational knowledge in coding and robotics.
