Kids smiling and having fun at camp at EFK Vancouver Island

Where curiosity turns into creativity and learning feels like play.

We’re back for another fun filled summer of hands on STEM camps throughout Greater Victoria. Campers will build, code, design and take on new challenges each day, bringing their ideas to life along the way.

From Minecraft and robotics to engineering projects and Dungeons & Dragons adventures, there’s something for everybody. With outdoor play built into each day, campers stay active, engaged and excited.

Full day camps are available for all ages, with half day options for our littlest engineers.
