Science Rocks!
Back by popular demand, UFV’s Science Rocks! summer day camps are designed for local students going into Grades 4-7 (as of Sept ’13). Each of the five different camps is structured to encourage the development of scientific problem-solving skills and to help campers learn fundamental scientific principles in a fun, hands-on way.

A week-long camp is $250, and includes all supplies, lunches, t-shirt, and completion certificate. There is a discount if you enroll your child in more than one week, or if you have more than camper: two camp registrations is $450; three $675; four $900; five $1,150.
