What to Expect

Campers will spend the day getting to know where the Wolfpack lives. From sports to science, this is an action-packed campus adventure designed to spark curiosity and build confidence. With hands-on activities, creative challenges, and movement breaks, campers experience a fun and supportive introduction to life at NWP.

The camp is led by NWP faculty and current students, creating a welcoming environment where campers learn directly from people who live, learn, and teach on campus every day.

Throughout the day, campers will:

  • Dive into sports and team-based games
  • Explore science and technology spaces
  • Try creative projects that encourage imagination and problem-solving

Please send your camper with the following:

  • A labelled water bottle
  • Nut-free snacks and lunch
  • Comfortable indoor shoes and weather-appropriate clothing
  • Any personal items they may need (e.g., medication, clearly labelled)

Campers are supervised by NWP faculty and trained student leaders who create a welcoming, respectful environment. Our priority is that every child feels safe, supported, and included while they explore campus life.
