2023 Summer Enrichment
Join us for Summer Camp at Trinity School!
At Trinity, our love of learning spills over into summer camp programs where younger students have the opportunity to sample what life at Trinity is like. We invite children from any school to participate! All programs offer new content every year and take place onsite at Trinity School at River Ridge. Grade levels reflect the grade your child will enter in the fall of 2023.
Optional Daylong Camp Experience: If you sign your child up for a morning and afternoon camp, please pack a brown bag lunch for your child to enjoy in between the camps.
Questions? If you would like information about our summer enrichment program, please contact Lucy Cunningham by emailing [email protected] or by calling (651) 395-6813.

“What a refreshing experience we had! We have done other camps elsewhere and my child was not always excited to go. Not this time. My son was up, dressed and ready for camp everyday, excited to tell me about what they did as well as continue some of the projects at home. We truly enjoyed camp and will attend again. We also will recommend to our friends.”
