sws Summer Camp

At the Sandpoint Waldorf Summer camp we explore the outdoors, create crafts, enjoy storytelling, and include plenty of time for play as campers explore the season, while supported by our experienced staff.

Our Sun Dirt and Bugs camp is for children aged 4 - first grade, and our Celebrating the Cultures camp is for children aged 7-12 years (Second grade through sixth grade).

Students not currently enrolled at Sandpoint Waldorf School are welcome to register for summer camp.

Sun, Dirt and Bugs ~ Ages 4 to 6

Summer is meant to be spent outdoors! At SWS, your child will enjoy summer days of imaginative play under the guidance of our early childhood staff. Activities include nature walks, water play, cooking, gardening, crafts, storytelling, music, and more. Come and see what fun in the sun lies ahead for your young one! Snack is provided; students bring their own lunch, sun protection, and swim wear (so we can get wet in the sprinklers). Enrollment is limited to 12 students. The youngest children need to be 4 years old by June 1st to be considered for enrollment.

Celebrating Cultures around the World ~ Ages 7 to 12

Each day, we will focus on a different culture through crafting, gardening, drama, playing games, and stories. For lunch, children will prepare a traditional meal from the culture of the day, with food harvested from the school garden. The entire day will be spent outdoors, with time in the afternoon for water play and outings. Fridays at 2:45 pm children will share with their families a short play and an edibule treat that they have created. The cultures and activities will vary from week to week, so children can enroll for just one week or multiple weeks. Bring snack, lunch provided. The youngest children need to be entering second grade to be considered for enrollment.
