Kind Words from Caregivers
“Our son loved the space theme and was obsessed with the camp altogether. Thank you for putting together something he enjoyed and learned a lot.”
“Excellent. All staff were very kind and helpful. When one of my children had a disagreement with another child, the staff handled it respectfully and responsibly.”
“The staff were genuinely awesome! Kind to me and to my child, very welcoming. She felt very safe and supported!”
“Incredible. Out of all the camps, your staff are the most engaged and attentive and great with kids. Very accommodating as well.”
“Our son's two camp counsellors were amazing. Super friendly and have sparked a huge interest in a career in science one day. He's also asked to come back the next two years.”
“My child had an amazing time and is sad his week is over. He definitely wants to do this again next summer.”

Camp Leader Testimonials
"I loved witnessing so many 'aha!' moments, especially seeing shy, quiet kids come out of their shells and build joyful memories! I felt incredibly proud of how science (and a little encouragement) can bring kids from different cultures together in the most amazing ways. I'd 100% sign up to be a camp leader again." —Yuwen, MA in Education
"I’m a botanist by trade, and love to share information about plants. I was amazed by the number of campers who became mini botanists as they learned about and watched their plants grow. One of my campers from spring returned in summer, and I was so excited to hear that her fern and moss terrarium we'd made months earlier was still thriving! Having the opportunity to inspire and foster curiosity in young minds is just so rewarding!" —Erika, B.Sc in Biology
"Getting to meet so many excited campers and getting to teach them science through fun activities was the best! Whenever I helped a camper who was having a rough day, it felt really rewarding knowing that I’ve made a difference and gave them a fun moment to look back on. It’s been a lot of fun every time I’ve been a Camp Leader so far, and even inspired me to work with another science world program." —Amel, B.Sc in Biomedical Physiology
