Summer Camps
Welcome to Pear Tree Education’s Summer Camps, where learning meets adventure! Since our founding in 2012, Pear Tree has been dedicated to transforming education through hands-on, theme-based learning. Our summer camps continue this tradition, offering unique experiences that combine fun, creativity, and educational growth.

Camp Types
We offer two exciting types of camps to suit every family’s needs. However, these are location specific. All of our Vancouver summer camps are designed by Pear Tree’s directors.
Students MUST be 5 years or older at the time of attendance.
Our camps cater to a wide range of age groups, ensuring age-appropriate activities and learning, ages:
5-6 7-8 9-10 11-12Theme-Based Camps

These are the signature Pear Tree camps we’re known for! Each week focuses on a unique, hands-on theme designed to engage and inspire children through creative, project-based learning. From STEM to art, our themes encourage curiosity and critical thinking.
5-6yr camp “It’s A Small World”: Young adventurers will travel the globe through art, music, and storytelling, learning about different cultures and traditions from around the world.
7-8yr camp “STEM Challenges”: Budding engineers will dive into exciting hands-on challenges, from building balloon-powered cars to launching paper rockets.
9-10yr camp “Marine Biology”: Future marine biologists will explore tide pools, study sea life, and even dissect a squid!
11-12yr camp “Entrepreneurs”: Young innovators will learn how to turn their ideas into real business concepts.
N.B. Camp themes for our EduActivity camps are partial versions of our classic camp themes and generally have different names.
EduActivity Camps

New this year! EduActivity Camps combine half-day Theme-Based learning and half-day activity-based fun. Kids will spend half of the day diving into engaging educational themes and the other half participating in dynamic activities like sports, outdoor adventures, or creative arts. Perfect for families looking for as much emphasis on outdoor time as indoor learning.
Sports and Physical Activities (e.g. Soccer, Capture the Flag, Dodgeball, Relay Races, Frisbee, Tag, Hula Hoops)
Organized Group Games (e.g. Scavenger Hunt, Obstacle Courses, Simon Says)
Nature-Based Activities (e.g. Nature Walks, Rock Painting, Environmental Clean-Up)
Water-Based Activities (e.g. Sprinkler Play, Water Balloon Toss, Mini Splash Pads)
Creative and Free-Play Activities (e.g. Sidewalk Chalk Art, Sandcastle Building, Nature Mandalas)
Other Activities (Bubbles, Paper Airplane Competitions)
Field Trips (these will include the field trip components for our theme-based classes, where possible)
N.B. Actually activity schedules will vary based on age groups and campus locations / facilities available.
