APEC’s Summer Exploration Nature Science Experience Series (S.E.N.S.E.S) Program
Expand your child’s summer experience with an exciting S.E.N.S.E.S. week-long program. New science themes each week! It makes SENSE to sign up for all 6 weeks!
APEC Pioneers 2023
Grades: Entering 4th – 6th
Welcome back scientists! Let’s unravel the mysteries of the cosmos and natural world with seasoned APEC educators, Mr. Jacob, and Mr. Asharee. Our daily sessions will include physical and mental games, STEM challenges, experiments, and literature. The program will also include time with APEC’s many animal ambassadors, and hikes along our nature trails! Whether we are making some slime, dissecting an owl’s last meal, or giving a chinchilla an exfoliating dust bath-you’ll be sure to enjoy this summer experience! Students should bring a bagged snack and a labeled water bottle (reusable preferred). Participants should have sunscreen and bug repellant applied prior to entering the Center. Spots are limited.
Monday-Friday 1:30 – 4:30 pm
Week 2 July 17 – July 21 Biome Blitz
Explore the fascinating world of biomes and learn how they support the worlds’ vast array of species. By conducting experiments and playing games, we will better understand some of the hallmark features of a variety of biomes! We will also see how their continued health affects us all. BONUS: Participants will receive an age-appropriate nature coloring book!
We anticipate being located in our NEW building on Northern Boulevard, east of the Cross Island Parkway, in Douglaston this summer. However, we can not guarantee the move will occur by July 1. If not, summer programs will be at our present location in Oakland Gardens.
