Home school camps
Home school camps are for home-schooled children between grades 1 and 5.
Camp Features
Each camp day features its own special theme, and all activities, from games and crafts to animal visits, are inspired by that day’s topic. Campers will explore the Magnetic Hill Zoo, prepare enrichment for the animals, meet fascinating animals up close in the classroom, enjoy outdoor playtime at the playground, and so much more… all while learning, creating, and having tons of fun!
