REGISTRATION FOR SUMMER 2023 IS CLOSED

  All campers are invited to join in the fun and use their curiosity, creativity, and investigative problem-solving skills to enjoy science through hands-on experimentation and stimulating activities. These aspiring scientists will travel from class to class at Gesu School.  Certified teachers will use an inquiry-based approach to learning during the four classes each day.  Campers will explore their own “smarts” in a child-centered environment while participating in science and gym activities throughout the week. Camp groups consist of 13-15 campers of similar ages under the care of the camp director, teachers and older student counselors.

• Seeing Eye to Eye! ~ Do you know how to make a phenakistoscope or a periscope? Both will help you to explore the wonders of your eyesight! Find your blindspot, learn about peripheral vision, have fun with optical illusions, create beautiful OP Art and much more!

• Do You Hear What I Hear? ~ Why can dogs hear so well? Can humans use echolocation? Experiment with sound waves, practice acoustic wayfinding, make music with water, create your own musical instruments and more!

• Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes!  Are you up for the game? Do you want to explore your SENSE of balance? Get your head, shoulders, knees, toes and all the rest of your parts in shape as you enjoy fun and active games and sports in the Family Center Gym! Your body will thank you!

• The Magic Touch! ~ What causes numbness? Can you read Braille? Can we alter one sense by dampening another? Find out as you test your sense of touch. Explore one and two point discrimination, test your reaction times, map your homunculus, find out how prosthetics work and more!
