Nature Camps

Our summer and winter camps integrate Finnish educational principles with nature exploration and cross-cultural exchange, helping children develop independence, responsibility, and a global outlook in real-world settings. Through Phenomenon-Based Learning (PhBL) and immersive experiences, children gain not only knowledge but also future-ready core competencies.

Below are examples of camps we have offered:

SUMMER CAMP

Our summer camp is designed to immerse participants in the true essence of Finnish summer life. You’ll stay in a mökki—a traditional Finnish log cabin—surrounded by peaceful nature. Throughout the camp, you’ll enjoy beloved Finnish activities such as relaxing in the sauna, swimming in pristine lakes, baking blueberry pies, foraging for mushrooms, and gathering around cozy campfire barbecues.

But the experience doesn’t end there. Participants will also take part in a Phenomenon‑Based Learning (PhBL) project centered on the theme “Finnish Nature.” Through hands‑on exploration of the natural environment around them, they will observe real-world phenomena and work together to create a meaningful final project inspired by their discoveries.

WINTER CAMP

Our winter camp invites participants to explore the wonder of Arctic life. Surrounded by snowy landscapes and crisp northern air, children dive into engaging themes such as Arctic wildlife, natural winter phenomena, survival skills, and indigenous Sámi culture. Through hands‑on experiences, they gain ecological knowledge and a meaningful connection to the northern environment.

At the heart of the camp is a Phenomenon-Based Learning (PhBL) project focused on understanding “Arctic Life.” By observing real-world phenomena around them, participants investigate how Arctic ecosystems work and uncover the visible impacts of climate change—transforming their discoveries into a thoughtful final project.
