Science Olympiad

Entering Grades 7-10

Our Science Olympiad Camp allows students to refine their skills across a broad sampling of the sciences, such as natural and physical science, as well as different aspects of engineering, mathematics, problem-solving, and hands-on application. Located in the Dolan Family Science, Technology, and Research Center, the week-long program is headed by moderators of our award-winning Science Olympiad Club.

Middle School Science Adventures

Entering Grades 5-8

Chaminade middle school science camp is back! Boys and girls entering grades 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 are invited to a week of science fun and activities at Chaminade’s Science Technology and Research Center. Campers will meet new people while participating in engaging experiments focused on biology, chemistry, physics, biotechnology, genetics, etc. We will have lightly competitive science activities each day, and the week will culminate with an outdoor science field event on Friday. Join us for a science filled week in July!

Anatomy & Physiology: Lab & Virtual Dissections

Discover the location and functions of both human and animal bones, muscles, organs etc. using our two state of the art Anatomage tables. The Anatomage tables allow for fully immersive hands-on digital dissections of human and animal structures. In addition to our Anatomage table dissections, our camp offers students the opportunity to explore the anatomy of the earthworm, frog, fetal pig, sheep brain, sheep heart and cow heart with “old fashioned” physical lab dissections. Campers are invited to join in the physical dissections, or just watch if they choose. In addition to anatomy, campers will learn about the homeostatic interactions between components of our body during the physiology section of camp. No prior science knowledge necessary! Our camp focuses on teaching both beginners and advanced science students concepts in anatomy and physiology. Join us for a fun week of biology this July!
