WHY?

We aim to help children have fun over the summer while improving their Chinese through interactive activities.
Our goal is to provide a safe, educational, and fun environment where children can learn Chinese while doing typical summer camp activities.

WHAT?

Campers engage in each week’s theme through hands-on activities like cooking, science, math, art and crafts. Children get into the habit of using and speaking Chinese by interacting with our Chinese teachers throughout the day. Children also learn vocabulary related to each week’s themes and activities.

  • MORNING ACTIVITY – morning exercise and mental games/puzzles
  • MID-MORNING ACTIVITY – campers prepare and cook their own lunch
  • LUNCH TIME
  • AFTERNOON ACTIVITY – time for natural science experiments and arts/crafts

For campers in extended care, there will be SWIM DAYS for certain camp weeks.
Read the SWIM DAY section below for more information.

WHO?

Children ages 5-11 (Grade 1 ~ Grade 5 in 2023-2024 school year)
who already understand and speak Mandarin Chinese.

MINIMUM LANGUAGE REQUIREMENT

Children should be in Mandarin Immersion school, Chinese After-School program, actively listen & speak Chinese at home, or have attended a Mandarin immersion preschool.

Children with no Chinese language background do not have enough language comprehension to understand our activities and enjoy our camp.

Sorry, kindergarten students with no Chinese language exposure
are not suitable for our summer camp.

WHEN?

There will be 9 one-week sessions between June 5 –  August 4, 2023.
No camp week during week of July 3 – July 7
