Little Doctor Summer Camp (Gr 3-6)

There are no better life skills to learn than how to take care of your own and others’ health!

Camp participants will role-play the key responsibilities of a doctor and learn about vital organs in the human body. These future doctors will learn how to use a stethoscope, blood pressure cuff, and reflex hammer. They will practice administering first aid, learn how pharmacists play a role in administering medications, and more at our Little Doctor Summer Camp (Gr 3-6)!

This is an experience full of STEM-based learning, activities and crafts.

Our teachings are based on STEM principles. We aim to ignite the passion of future healthcare heroes and get them excited about how the body works, as well as the importance of health! Every day your child will return home with materials to show you what they learned. Of note, all the necessary materials for each class are provided to students. At the end of the session, camp concludes with a graduation ceremony where each student receives a personalized diploma.

Board-certified physicians and experts in the field of child education have collaborated to write our curriculum. Our instructors are well-trained and they have an interest in health sciences and education. They will deliver fun, engaging and interactive content. Additionally, all our instructors have provided a vulnerable sector check.

Your camper will make new friends as teamwork, role-playing and collaboration are key parts of our activities. Your child will have an unforgettable summer filled with lots of fun, fun…and fun!
