Summer Camp at Country Meadows Montessori in Gurnee
Summer Camp at Country Meadows Montessori School runs for 10 weeks from June 8th to August 14th for children from 3 years to 12 years old. Camp activities are balanced between morning academics, afternoon specialty classes, Thursday fun events, and Friday field trips. Music, physical education, and outside recess are included in the everyday routine. The summer camp is open to the community and does not require previous enrollment at the Montessori School.
Preschool Camp for children aged 3-5 is divided into themed weeks incorporating academic subjects with practice in math, science, reading, art, and cooking. Lessons are extended outside into nature with nature walks, gardening, recycling, and composting.
Students entering first grade in the fall will benefit from the Transitional Camp for New 1st Graders designed to make the transition to first grade a successful one. Mornings will focus on reading, writing, and math. Afternoons will be devoted to art, music, sports, gardening, and outdoor play.
Elementary campers from 7-12 years old will take a break from the rigors of the school year enjoying theme-based projects in the morning. These projects will allow the campers to use acquired academic skills to solve fun, interesting, and creative challenges. They will be caretakers of our Giving Garden which supplies food to a local food pantry through a grant from Katie's Krops.
Flexible scheduling allows campers to personalize their enrollment for as few as two weeks up to a maximum ten weeks of camp to accommodate your summer vacation plans.
