Get ready to explore the living world in Bio-Explorers, a hands-on science camp designed for curious students in Grades 2-3! Journey through time as we explore the natural world from the time of the dinosaurs to the modern era. Campers will dive into the wonders of nature as they investigate plants, animals, ecosystems, and the incredible connections that make our planet thrive.

Expect to see: Hands-on nature investigations, engaging activities about plants, animals, and habitats, trips to the Arboretum for exploration and observation, and mentor visits from topic experts!
Bio-Explorers is for youth entering Grades 2 & 3 in September 2026.

Camp will take place Monday-Friday from 9 AM-4 PM. This summer we are offering Extended Care (optional, for an additional flat fee) in which campers can be dropped off starting at 8:10 AM and picked up any time between 4-4:50 PM. You can opt into Extended Care upon registering a camper for a given camp week. Please note that campers in Grade 6 or higher are permitted to be designated for “Self Sign-Out” of themselves and younger siblings. For more information, please visit our website (www.uoguelph.ca/creative-encounters/).
Please do not hesitate to email us at cse@uoguelph.ca if you have any questions and we will get back to you as soon as we can. We are looking forward to another amazing summer of in-person STEM camps!
