Discovery Quest is a four-day camp designed for students in Grades 4-5 who are curious about how science and technology shape the world around them. This camp offers a broad introduction to key areas of STEM through hands-on, inquiry-based learning.

Campers will explore a variety of activities inspired by life sciences, physical sciences, engineering, and technology, including experiments, design challenges, and beginner-friendly tech projects. Each day highlights different STEM themes, giving campers a chance to experience the types of activities featured in our other specialized camps.
Expect to see: A mix of experiments, building, and exploration across STEM disciplines, and the opportunity to explore multiple CE Camp themes in one camp!
Discovery Quest is for youth entering Grades 4 & 5 in September 2026.

Camp will take place Tuesday-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!
