Our summer program offers the same high-

quality programs you have come to expect from Saint

James School in a safe, nurturing environment.

Five Weeks of THEMED FUN: June 25th – July 27th, 2018

Who Can Apply: Registered students entering SJS Kindergarten through Grade 5 in

September 2018. Weekly Themes (choose one week or as many weeks as you would like):

June 25th – June 29th

Storytelling! Campers will journey to whimsical worlds and far-away lands through the magic of storytelling. A visit from Science Storytellers will round out a week of fun designed to nurture and stimulate campers’ passion for storytelling and expand their writing skills. Mrs. Sabatella will conduct daily crafts that complement the stories, just like our much-loved Book & Art Club.

July 2nd – July 6th (no program on July 4th)

Space is the Place! This week is packed with fun activities for students to explore their interest in the planets, stars, and space travel. Mrs. Sabatella will be on hand each day to make space-themed crafts, and the Children’s Museum of West Hartford will bring their traveling planetarium for a morning of camping under the stars.

July 9th – July 13th

Music Makers! This week is all about music as campers make one-of-a-kind instruments, enjoy dance parties, and sing-along with local guitarist Bruce John. Mrs. Sabatella will provide daily music-themed crafts to help campers channel their inner rock star.

July 16th – July 20st Animals! Learn all about native/exotic animals and reptiles, caring for pets, and – of course – dinosaurs! We will also enjoy a visit from Riverside Reptiles as part of this week of fun!

July 23rd – July 27th

A “Smorgasbord” of Fun! Campers will enjoy a local magician, games with prizes, movies with popcorn, daily crafts with Mrs. Sabatella, Christmas in July, cool gadgets, and just a whole lot of fun to wrap up the Saint James School Summer Camp 2018.
