There are no better life skills to learn than learning how to take care of your health and the health of others!

Camp participants will role-play the key responsibilities of a doctor and learn about vital organs in the human body. These future doctors will learn how to use a stethoscope, blood pressure cuff, and reflex hammer. They will practice administering first aid, learn how pharmacists play a role in administering medications, and more!

This is an experience full of STEM-based learning, activities and crafts.

The students in our mixed-age group classroom are divided into:

Interns: 4-7 years old

Residents: 8-12 years old

Full-day and half-day options are available (9 am - 12 pm).

🩺 The camp concludes with a graduation ceremony where each student receives a personalized diploma.

🩺 The education is based on STEM principles. It ignites the passion of future healthcare heroes and gets them excited about how the body works and the importance of health.

🩺 Every day your child will return home with materials to show you what they learned. Students will be provided with all the necessary materials for each class.

🩺 The curriculum is written by board-certified physicians and experts in child education.

🩺 Our instructors are well-trained, and they have an interest in health sciences and education. They will deliver fun, engaging and interactive content. All our instructors have provided a vulnerable sector check.

🩺 Your child will make new friends as lots of our activities involve teamwork, role-playing and collaboration.

🩺 Your child will have an unforgettable summer filled with lots of fun, fun ...and fun! 🤩

  • Fire safety and practice
  • Playtime safety rules
  • Outdoor rules

If you didn't find a spot, please register for free on our waitlist and, dependent on numbers, we may open additional classes.

Food is not included. Make sure that lunch boxes are nut-free!

Your child will need unscented sunscreen and a towel/picnic blanket because some classes will be conducted outdoors.
