Each week at NORY summer camp, your child will be immersed into an eye-opening theme and take on purposeful challenges with their peers as a team.
Our experiential learning program allows your innovator to design and find their own solutions to problems and fail without fear as they develop valuable skills for innovators including: resiliency, inquisitiveness, and empathy.
Young innovators will develop new skills, to program a robot, build circuits, conduct experiments and more. We encourage children to ask "why" and will never answer "just because".
