Summer Camp 2024: Dates and Themes

Our camp weeks for 2024 will feature a great mix of new themes and classic favourites (including – by popular demand – 2 different Minecraft themes, each with unique programming!). Every week, we will have amazing activities where kids will learn things like coding with Minecraft (that’s right, Minecraft fun is included every week of camp), programming a robot, building models, doing experiments and so much more, all wrapped in whatever the theme for that week is.
