Discovery Western Summer Camp
At Discovery Western we believe that science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) is for everyone! Our main goal is that our campers have fun. While we want our campers to learn something new through hands-on learning, we also want them to have fun and explore science and engineering in a place where they can be themselves. For over 35 years Discovery Western has nurtured curiosity and a love of life-long learning through favorite camp crafts and games along with opportunities to build confidence and skills in STEM. Open to all students in Senior Kindergarten to Grade 6.

Housed within the Faculty of Engineering, the Western Engineering Summer Academy (WESA) is designed for students going into Grades 7 to 12. This program offers students exciting opportunities to explore the various disciplines of engineering through fun, hands-on activities and challenges, campus tours and opportunities to meet faculty, staff and students here at Western.

Girls Lead
The Girls LEAD (Leadership, Education and Development) summer camp program is excited to welcome girls entering grades 6-8 for an empowering day camp experience! The focus of all camp programming is to inspire and empower young girls in our community to be confident in themselves and confident in their abilities as a leader. Girls LEAD also features a Lunch & Learn program twice a week. This camp was created by Brescia University College and this year is being coordinated through Sport Western.
