At Ivybrook Academy, summer is a time for exploration, creativity, and growth. Our summer camp programs are thoughtfully designed to engage children in fun, hands-on activities that align with their developmental needs. By placing children into multi-age classes based on their age during the camp session, we ensure that every child enjoys a meaningful and enriching experience.
We believe that summer is an opportunity for children to explore their interests, discover new skills, and deepen their understanding of the world around them. Our lesson plans and activities are tailored to meet the needs of children at each developmental stage, fostering curiosity and confidence in a nurturing environment.
