This summer, the young adventurers of Naramake Elementary School's After the Bell (ATB) Enrichment Camp embarked on an exciting field trip to The Adventure Park in Storrs, CT. This excursion, one of the many highlights of our camp program, offers children aged 5-11 a unique opportunity to learn and grow outside the traditional classroom setting. Operating from 8:30 am to 3:30 pm, with an extended day option until 5:30 pm for working families, our camp ensures every child experiences a summer full of fun, education, and enrichment.
At The Adventure Park, our campers are immersed in an environment encouraging them to engage their minds and bodies. The park's challenge courses in the trees foster problem-solving skills, enhance motor skills, and build self-esteem and confidence. Successfully navigating these courses instills a positive mindset in students, helping them develop leadership skills that translate into their everyday lives and classroom dynamics.
The Adventure Park is more than just an outdoor playground; it’s a place where learning comes to life. Campers are exposed to STEM concepts through the park’s Maker Space and various adventures that seamlessly integrate science, technology, engineering, and mathematics into fun activities. This hands-on approach reinforces what they learn during camp and supports their classroom lessons uniquely and engagingly. Our students always return from The Adventure Park brimming with excitement and newfound knowledge, eager to apply what they've learned.
Recreation and wellness are core components of Carver’s programming during the summer and throughout the school year. Physical activities like those offered at The Adventure Park are essential for children’s overall well-being. They help to reduce stress, improve physical health, and enhance social skills. By encouraging children to engage in recreational activities, we support their holistic development and foster a lifelong love of learning and wellness.
The ATB Enrichment Camp at Naramake Elementary School offers a variety of activities designed to nurture every aspect of a child's growth. In addition to the adventure-filled field trips, our program includes science experiments, art projects, marine science exploration, engineering challenges, and social-emotional learning sessions. These activities are carefully crafted to provide all campers with a balanced and enriching experience.
Parents can ensure their children spend their summer in a safe, stimulating, and nurturing environment. Carver’s commitment to excellence in education and enrichment is evident in every aspect of our programs. The ATB Enrichment Camp helps children develop academically and supports their physical and emotional well-being.
