School may be out for summer, but that doesn’t mean kids need to take a break from learning.
And for those between the ages of six and 12 who are on brushing up on their science skills in an entertaining, non – academic setting, the Super Science Camp, held at the Bold Center from July 24–28, is the place to be.
“The purpose of this camp is to give kids the ability to be active, build teamwork, and explore their creativity in a fun environment,” says Kristina Oberg, the community recreation supervisor for Lac La Biche County. “These camps are important because they support the development of physical literacy, and help kids gain confidence and social skills.”
While attending the camp, youngsters are given the opportunity to participate in a variety of themed experiments and special activities. They are taught such valuable lessons as the science of sports, as well as how building structures work.
“There are so many games that enhance their knowledge,” Oberg explained. “They get to do fun things like building catapults and making slime, which is something kids really enjoy.”
This is the first year for the Super Science Camp, which is one of several camps over the summer months hosted by Lac La Biche County Department of Recreation and Culture.
Other camps taking place this summer include a Mission Impossible-themed program from July 17-21, a Creative Circus from August 8-11, and a Magicians Academy from August 14-18.
Anyone interested in registering kids for the camps can contact the Bold Center customer service desk.
