All of our classes are taught to encourage hands-on experience and participation by students. We believe that students learn by doing. Our activities are both fun and educational, utilizing children’s energy and creativity to guide them towards a greater connection and appreciation for the world around them. Many schools and teachers come prepared to teach classes or lead activities as well. Camp is a great time for teachers to reinforce concepts taught in the classroom and connect with students in a different environment. We encourage teachers to use camp as a time to enhance the work done in the classroom. We are here to help and assist you.
