Children and Youth Programming

Nursery

This program is for young children who have not yet started attending school, and leads them in a fun time of exploration. The class will be held both outdoors and indoors, with structured activities and time for free play.

Kindergarten through Second Grade

Director: Terry Ward

Returning for her second year as Primary Camp Director, Terry Ward will inspire our children with tales of UU Superheroes, our history and legacy as Unitarian Universalists, and opportunities to grow in the Faith today! Terry will be assisted by John and Beth Hammer!

Third through Sixth Grades: Hogwarts

Director: Julie Tribble

Julie Tribble, the SWUUSI Hogwarts Head Mistress, will bring the four houses back for another year!
Here is a note from the head mistress:

This year the theme of the camp is “Historia Nos“ (Our stories). We will be looking into what we want our story, as Unitarian Universalist‘s, to be. “Honeydukes” Candy will once again be available for sale in the hall outside of our classroom. It is one of our students’ highlight of the week! We will still have our old favorites of Quidditch, Potions and Transfigurations, and Care of Magical creatures class at the nature center.

Looking forward to seeing you all at the swuusi school of magic!

Sincerely,

Prof. Unita Bakeschtuff

Seventh through Ninth Grades: COA

Director: Ryan Hoffland

Ryan Hoffland will offer a Coming of Age program for Unitarian Universalist Youth who may not have a COA program at their home churches. The program will include UU History and Theology, Identity building, and a Credo Ceremony at the final worship.

Ninth through Twelfth Grades

Building on the theme of “The Once and Future Church”, the Youth at SWUUSI will engage in Unitarian Universalist Identity-Building, candid discussion about our Faith, worship, and service to the community.
