BLUE OAK SCHOOL SUMMER CAMP

During the summer months, Blue Oak School offers fun and enriching summer camp experiences open to all Bay Area kids! Blue Oak’s summer camp programs are an extension of the school’s progressive educational philosophies that allow students to “learn by doing” in child-centered, developmentally appropriate ways. Summer camps offer an opportunity for kids to enjoy the slower pace of summer while exploring different areas of interest, or diving deeper on specific themes. Themed camps allow for multi-age cooperative experiences with projects and activities that are modified depending on skill, interest and ability.
