Summer Camp 2025 at Polaris School and Centre

Nature Connect Camp
Only complete payment if you have already registered and received a confirmation email and invoice.

The joyful return of the red-winged blackbirds and  Canada geese has us thinking ahead to sunshine-filled summer camps at Polaris! This summer, join outdoor educator and Polaris Nature Connect facilitator Amy for hands-on nature inspired learning and play out on the land. The school is surrounded by many beloved green spaces and conservation areas where we will head to in search of magic and inspiration, rain or shine. We will explore the pond, climb and play in our treehouse, throw stones in the river, play games in the fields and forests, craft nature journals, and cook bannock over the fire. Each week will have a unique inspiration and focus but we will go where the wind takes us. We hope to see you there!

July 14-18 Crafting, cordage, journaling, whittling
We’re bringing out the picnic blankets this week! We will spend a portion of each day foraging for natural materials and then settling in for afternoons of crafting together. We will create cordage, flower crowns, spoons, nature journals, fairy baskets, and more. 

July 21-25 Edible plants & trees 
This week we will draw big inspiration from the plant and tree allies all around us. We will learn how to identify common plants and trees and how to forage safely and respectfully. We will make special concoctions like wildflower jelly, sun teas, pine syrup, and we will eat wild raspberries by the handful.
