Take a look at these sea creatures! Hello Edgewood Campers!

Campers had s'more fun this week playing volleyball, making their own travel board games and murals in art, visiting "mars" in science and getting their passports stamped at the Long Beach Aquarium!

SUMMER week three: under the stars

Fairmont Campers and Counselors are Number 1!

In honor of America's Independence, the third week of Fairmont Summer Programs was one giant celebration of Americana with field trips to an Angels baseball game and Corona del Mar Beach. We all enjoyed teaching our international students about hot dogs, the 7th inning stretch, and of course, the Rally Monkey!

Go Angels!

For most of our campers, the beach trip is their favorite field trip. Making sandcastles, catching sand crabs and teaming up with buddies to splash counselors with buckets of water are some of the best summer camp memories. Our apologies if you are planning a beach trip yourself this weekend--we may have brought all of the sand back on the bus with us!

A perfect day at the beach!

Summer camp science was a blast doing experiments surrounding space and rockets. Campers were even transported to Mars to analyze tasty space samples--learning has never been so yum, we mean fun! The art mosaics our campers made were also out of this world!

For Friday Fun Day on-campus for our preschool and junior kindergarten students, campers enjoyed a visit from Build-a-Bear! What a fun party favor from America's birthday party this week at Fairmont Summer Programs.

You know it's been a great week when this is what the bus looks like heading back to campus!

Have a great weekend and see you next week!

SUMMER week two: where the wild things are

Tuesday Swim Day

This week kicked off the first week of Fairmont's 6-week summer school program. Students pre-kindergarten through 8th grade joined Fairmont teachers in school-year readiness programs focusing on reading, writing and math. At the high school level, subject specific hybrid courses began this week allowing students to get ahead over the summer by taking challenging for-credit courses.

Summer campers played basketball, made paper mache creatures, tie-dyed camp shirts and experimented with UV beads in this week's "Where the Wild Things Are" themed week of camp.

Some of the Wild Things at the Zoo -- Love these monkey faces!

Today's field trip to the LA Zoo wrapped up this week's Wild Things adventure by seeing where the wild things really are! Campers and counselors loved getting up close with giraffes, gorillas, chimpanzees, elephants, hippos and more!

Don't miss next week's "Under the Stars" week of summer camp celebrating America's Independence with a trip to cheer on the Angels! Don't forget, Fairmont is closed on Monday in observance of the July 4th holiday. 

SUMMER week one: welcome wilderness explorers

 

Welcome to the Great Outdoors!

This week, we kicked off Fairmont's "Great Outdoors" themed summer programs with Week One of Summer Camp. The theme this week was: Welcome Wilderness Explorers! We're already having a blast with our awesome new campers--summer is off to a wonderful start!

In Summer Camp this week, we welcomed our wilderness explorers with art projects ranging from custom designing their wilderness backpacks to creating their own compass keychain. Campers also planted and made paint out of natural spices in science--and made their own snow, in June! (Who says it never snows in California??)

Today, we wrapped up week one with the Camp Kick-Off Pow-Wow at the Anaheim Hills Campus. Campers enjoyed waterslides, cotton candy (nachos, pizza, snowcones and more... sorry mom!), beading and build-a-bear stations--along with games and other activities all designed to help us welcome a summer of fun with friends!

It's not too late to sign up for summer school, which starts on Monday, June 27th. We're looking forward to a summer packed with adventure here at Fairmont!
