Schoolhouse of Wonder Camps

Schoolhouse camps provide a unique combination of fun and growth, giving kids the opportunity to try new things, make lasting friendships, learn how to take risks, develop lifelong skills, and connect with nature.

In addition to weekly and overnight summer camps, we also run year-round single-day camps (Discovery Days), track-out, intersession, and early release (half-day) camps to cover your family’s child care throughout the school year. Campers enjoy adventuring through the changing forest, building fires and forts, whittling, and playing plenty of games. Nature-based themes change each week, so a new adventure is always in play. We’ve set up our school break camps to accommodate as many Triangle school calendars as possible. Sign up for as many as you need to cover your camper’s time out of school!

Schoolhouse of Wonder provides unique opportunities for 13- to 16-year-olds to feel confident, secure, and imaginative as they continue to discover who they are and what they’re capable of achieving. Develop leadership skills that are useful at home, school, and in the community – not just at camp. Our mentors coach teens to observe, learn, and practice skills and qualities such as positive attitude, integrity, confidence, humility, empathy, communication, cooperation, teamwork, and the willingness to try new things. Through these experiences teens learn to hear their own voice, discover their own leadership style, and build their capacity to lead people of all ages.
