March 23, 2021

St. Peter’s School is thrilled to be able to offer an in-person camp experience for the 2021 summer, for children ages 3 – 5. From June 28 – August 20, campers can experience eight unique weeks of STEAM focused, play-based and activity driven summer fun.

The SPS Summer REACH Camp utilizes the School’s bright and spacious classrooms and enclosed and secured outdoor space, ideal for rising Preschool, Prekindergarten, and Kindergarten children. Our camp will be led by the School’s year-round REACH Staff along with St. Peter’s School faculty in our Early Childhood Division.

We will get your children moving, thinking, and interacting with the world around them. Whether we’re exploring the mysteries of the stars, or digging through our ancient past, we plan to celebrate the season with plenty of outdoor time, and foster a love of learning, all while acclimating our youngest students to a school environment.
