Fall Break S.T.E.A.M. Camp 2023

For students currently in grades 1-6

S.T.E.A.M (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math) is an exciting, ever-evolving part of education and the world around us. But kids don’t always get the chance to play and explore in these areas in a meaningful way beyond school. At Tutor Doctor Hawaii’s summer camp, students will have the chance to enrich their S.T.E.A.M. knowledge through fun, hands-on projects and activities. 

Campers will encounter open-ended challenges and interactive projects that engage core S.T.E.A.M. principles while centering student imagination, curiosity, and enjoyment. They’ll get creative with a diverse range of materials and tools, and develop tangible skills in art, writing, and S.T.E.M.  

From building robots and gadgets, to exploring print making and traditional dye techniques, to writing original stories and more, our goal is to inspire the next generation of innovators, problem solvers, and creative thinkers. 

Join our S.T.E.A.M. TEAM – where learning feels like play!

All students and staff are required to stay home and not attend camp if they are feeling sick or showing symptoms of illness. This is a key step in keeping our center safe for everyone, and we kindly request for parents to assess their children before coming to camp.  If your child will be staying home and missing class for any reason, please report this to the office.
