What is Mini Explorers?

Camp Type: Mini, STEM

Mini Explorers is designed for the camper who always asks “why.” It’s the perfect camp for curious young minds! Led by equally inquisitive staff, this camp will explore different topics and themes each day. From eco-exploring our beautiful 13-acre campus, to globe-trotting around the world and venturing to outer space, campers will engage in a wide variety of age-appropriate activities. Each day will explore a different area or topic, and be guided by Branksome Camps’ theme of the week. There will also be time every day devoted to camp-style games and active outdoor play, as well as recreational swimming a couple of times throughout the week.

Camp Details

Dress Code

Dress for an active day.

Wear running shoes and comfortable clothing that can get dirty!

We recommend bringing a change of clothes in case of accidents or situations which require a change of clothes.

Daily Activities

Each camp has a focus and daily activities also include camp-style games and outdoor play.

Bring sunscreen, a hat and a water bottle labelled with your camper’s name.

A swim instructor in a pool gives a high-five to a smiling child wearing goggles and a red flotation device, while other children swim nearby during a swimming lesson.

Swimming

All camps include recreational swimming 2–3 times per week.

Bring a bathing suit and towel on your swim days (a schedule will be sent to registered families).

There is no alternative programming available during swim time.

Children stand in line at a cafeteria, holding trays as a staff member serves food behind a glass counter. Other staff, wearing green shirts, assist in the background. The atmosphere appears busy and organized.
