Nanaimo Science offers a variety of day camps on school Pro-D dates and school breaks!
Our programs are science-driven, with several activities daily focused on each theme for children to take part in – our approach is very hands-on, inviting kids to explore and try things out! Campers also have lots of fun, with crafts, games, and outdoor time. All materials will be provided. Campers will need to bring snacks, lunch and water from home.
PRO D DAY CAMP REGISTRATION NOW OPEN!
Lunch/recess will be held outdoors when weather permits, which will include a walk to Long Lake (approximately 15 minutes each way, on side roads). While this is a primarily indoor camp, students must bring appropriate outerwear for recess/lunch.
Runs from 9:00 AM – 3:00 PM. Cost is $70 per child. Families must provide their own snacks and lunches.
At Nanaimo Science, we offer a variety of activities to support learning and exploration for all children. If you have questions about whether a program is right for your child, please contact us. We are committed to working with families to reduce barriers to participation wherever possible.
