Summer camp 2025

Campers will explore animal habitats, enjoy hands-on activities like the Predator Animal ID game, and embark on thrilling zoo adventures. They’ll create and present team dioramas, making learning fun and interactive. Join us for a week of discovery, creativity, and adventure!

Enjoy the holiday!

Go Green! Students will learn about the problems affecting the earth such as pollution, waste control, climate change, etc. and how we can better take care of our environment. They will be given one problem per team and put their solutions in a presentation that will be shown at the end of the week.

Robot Wars is back! Students will learn to program and build a robot that will compete in a sumo robot competition against other robot competitors. This year, FWU will be using a new robot: The Lego Mindstorm spike prime! There will be advanced robots for them to use python based programming and others who have less robot experience will be using a scratch based program. May the best robot win!

No money? No problem! Here, campers will learn the importance of budgeting and acquire essential money management skills. Then they’ll work together to create their own product or business and develop an advertisement to endorse it.

This week, students will build, program and use the Lego’s Spike Prime Robot. Campers will learn to integrate sensors and move the robot around a course. More advanced roboticists will use the Python language. For less experienced students, we will program the robots using the Scratch programming language. Teams will compete against each other at the end of the week.

This week the kids will be put to the task of building bridges! Students will use the program tinkerCAD to design their bridges and will construct a miniature version with popsicle sticks! At the end of the week, teams will present their tinkerCAD projects and will compete to see whose bridge can withstand the most weight. May the best bridge win!

Calling all artists! Campers will Improve and show off their new sketching and painting techniques as they create a masterpiece that will be displayed when we transform FWU into an art gallery at the end of the week.

This week students will write their own program and work with a team of coders. At the end of the week the teams will compete with each other to demonstrate whose program is best! There will be Advanced coding for those interested in Python and for beginner coders they will use the Scratch language. Happy coding!
