A Creative Learning Camp Experience
The Seed
The Learning Institute
was founded on the belief that children need a safe and nurturing
place where they can learn without judgment or criticism. At our
camp, every child belongs, every child is a cherished part of
the program and every child's contribution is valued. Since
it is the child's own ideas and individual expression that
are important, the child gains a sense of ownership that makes
learning exciting and fulfillilling.
Summerset
welcomes all children (beginning
kindergarten through fifth grade) with a wide range of
abilities, learning styles and backgrounds. Our philosophy is
that when learning is fun and happens in the right environment,
a child will become a better reader and writer.
From the first day children are respected
and considered the most important part of this learning
journey. Guided by teachers with master’s degrees and a wealth
of experience, they learn to become strategic readers and
writers who are then able to generate this experience to
life-long learning in and out of school.
We also honor and celebrate the parent/child relationship which
is essential to all areas of development. The children, the
teachers and the parents all journey together to make this a
most unique and unforgettable experience. The many families who
return every year are a testament to the camp's success. At
the end of the journey, excitement builds for the evening
celebration picnic. This is truly a magical night where
the children share their accomplishments. The evening is dedicated
to acknowledging and enjoying all that the children have learned
and created.
Since The
Learning Institute was founded in 1991, our goal has remained the
same; we seek to provide children with a summer experience that is
fun, enjoyable and rewarding. It is our hope to stimulate a passion
for reading and writing that will last a lifetime.
