Kids on Campus is a lineup of summer camps for children ages 5 to 15 at Bucks County Community College, 275 Swamp Road in Newtown, with engaging programs that combine creativity, exploration, and fun in a safe and supportive environment.
A new selection of topics is available each week, so kids can choose which camp sparks their interest or curiosity, while giving families the flexibility to choose which weeks fit their summer schedule.
Running June 15 through August 7, these engaging programs will spark your child’s imagination, whether they are passionate about art, science, sports, filmmaking, animation, or hands-on discovery. The camps run Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 3:30 PM.
“We’ve added a variety of creative options this year that will enrich your child’s summer,” said Michael Hughes, Community Program Manager for Kids on Campus. “Topics range from arts and crafts, science and STEAM, theatre, sports, and more.”
This summer’s expanded offerings include creative new camps such as:
- Cultivating Connection, which blends art, mindfulness, and social-emotional learning;
- Beginner Printmaking, where young artists explore exciting techniques and bold designs;
- Eco-Artists, which connects creativity with nature;
- Mixed Media, encouraging experimentation with paint, paper, fabric, and found objects;
- Beginner Painting, where aspiring artists build confidence while learning watercolor, tempera, and acrylic techniques.
Other favorites include Super Slimy Smokey Science, Pickleball, Flag Football, Intro to Film and TV, Lego and Stop Motion Animation, and Minecraft Architects.
Teens ages 13 to 15 can enjoy their own adventures through Teens on Campus, featuring activities such as Bucks Book Club, Cardboard Creations, and Fabulous Fishing.
The camps are led by certified teachers and experienced professionals.
