The Hun School of Princeton

Meet the Camp Logo

The Hun School’s day camp is designed by campers, for campers—the student-based and directed camp invites campers to choose their activities for the next day and customize their summer experience.

Day campers at Hun can enjoy swim lessons and free swim every day, explore nature on the school’s 45-acre campus, learn through STEAM activities, create LEGO builds and arts and crafts, explore new games and build friendships. Older campers have the option to combine day camp with Hun Adventures, a program that focuses on innovative, project-based learning.

“Our campers love playing games, going to the creek to explore nature and swimming daily, while our parents love the flexibility of having before- and after-care, choosing full or half days and combining Hun Adventures with Hun Day Camp to give older campers a well-rounded summer of fun and academics,” says Director of Summer Programs Patrick Quirk. Campers also appreciate the provided buffet-style lunch, which offers an array of options to accommodate dietary restrictions—not to mention soft-serve and Dole Whip.

Along with day camp, the school offers one-week sport camps taught by its championship coaches in all-gender soccer and field hockey, boys’ basketball and girls’ volleyball. New this summer, a weeklong dance camp will also be offered. For-credit and enrichment courses in math, science, test prep, writing and other subjects are also available. “We’re proud that our camp connects campers with our Hun School community,” Quirk says, noting that all of the junior counselors and lifeguards are students and/or former campers. “Their connection to Hun builds belonging— which is a key goal of the school itself.”
