Summer Camps
Explorers Forest School offers outdoor summer programs for children ages 4–12 that nurture curiosity, confidence, and a strong connection to nature and community. Located just 15 minutes east of Saskatoon on a private 160-acre prairie and forest landscape, our programs give children time and space to learn, play, and grow outdoors.
Led by Forest School practitioners, our camps are rooted in child-led exploration and hands-on learning in nature. Children are supported as they follow their interests, build confidence, solve problems, and develop a sense of belonging through time spent outdoors with others.
In a busy, indoor-focused world, we offer children the chance to slow down, play freely, and enjoy meaningful time outside. Our camps create lasting memories, strong friendships, and a lifelong appreciation for the outdoors.
Please reach out if your child is outside the suggested age ranges.
