Does your child love spending time outdoors? Are they interested in environmental issues? Do they want to learn more about the natural world?

Exciting news! Tucker House is hosting a single-day camp for small groups of children ages 7-12 offered in both French and English. Each camp will centre around an environmental theme that will help enrich your child’s understanding of science and the natural world.

Your children will learn and develop leadership skills, make new friends and get their hands dirty on a beautiful, historic 33 acre property right here in Rockland.

Through exploratory learning, camp attendees will discover what makes a successful garden, what plants need in order to grow, and how to identify various types of plants both in our pollinator garden and around our property. Children will come home with a crafted memento for their own garden to continue their learning adventure in gardening right at home.

*Please note that each day of the Pollinators Camp will host the same activities, however your child is welcome to attend as many sessions as they would like. The content of the camp will be the same no matter the date.

*Please note that each day of the Fungi Camp will host the same activities, however your child is welcome to attend as many sessions as they would like. The content of the camp will be the same no matter the date.

Please note that enrolment for our camps will be limited to 5-10 children to allow for social distancing and to keep our campers, their families, and our staff safe. We will require all visitors spending the day with us to complete a COVID-19 screening form online before they arrive.

We guarantee days that are full of beautiful and educational activities that will be beneficial for your child.
