Summer @ Acton 2025
Acton Academy East Bay is thrilled to offer 3 weeks of camps for Summer 2025. Join our exciting and enriching summer program designed to ignite your child's curiosity, foster creativity, and empower your child with essential skills for success. From hands-on workshops to immersive experiences, our program offers a dynamic blend of academic exploration, personal development, and fun-filled activities.
Throughout the day your learner will explore several different types of challenges specific to the theme for that week’s camp. Your child will gain experience learning, engaging, and diving deep into different STEAM topics. We usually try to cap off the week with a fun day at The Wave!
​
Summer@Acton is open to everyone! You do not have to be enrolled at Acton to sign up.
Camp starts daily at 8:30 am and ends at 3:30 pm. Please be sure to pack a lunch for your child each day.

Culinary Camp - Cooking (K-8)
Budding foodies will enjoy five days of hands-on experience! They will be cooking up different types of foods each day and will hone their knife skills and kitchen chops. From a week of experimenting with preparing different dishes to the final day when they create a menu for the opening of their own “restaurants”, this camp is filled with yummy treats. Come with an appetite prepared for foods such as soups, salads, tacos, and breakfast! Our menus will abide by our camper’s dietary restrictions.

Ready to become an ecologist? Spark curiosity in outdoor exploration with this program’s diversity of activities ranging from plant dissections to documenting scientific nature observations. Each day these scientists will explore a new aspect of wildlife, plants, biology, and what it takes to support the nature around them. These skills build learner’s patience and appreciation for the natural world, including their community!
Week 3: July 28 - August 1
Culinary Camp - Baking (K-8)
This week, bakers enjoy this hands-on experience as they test and bake different types of foods each day.
