Shopping in Downtown Calgary!!!
A Memorable Day at Summer Camp Wynchemna
Our day started bright and early with a delicious breakfast of waffles topped with Nutella, setting the perfect tone for a day filled with energy and enthusiasm. After fuelling up, it was time for our morning lessons. At Wynchemna, learning is interactive and engaging. Today, our focus was on mastering the 5 W’s (who, what, when, where, why), crafting alliterations, using descriptive words effectively, and even learning how to confidently order food at a restaurant. The lessons were not just educational but practical, preparing campers for real-world scenarios.
We also had some new students join us for our fun-filled day by getting checked in to their rooms, signing their quarter contracts, and earning a Wynchemna water bottle and T-shirt!
After a productive morning, it was time to refuel with a mouthwatering lunch at The Tower. Picture plates piled high with delicious pasta, accompanied by garlic bread, fresh fruit, and scrumptious cookies. The dining experience at Wynchemna is not just about the food but about bonding with fellow campers and staff, sharing stories and laughter.
With our bellies full and spirits high, we wrapped up our academic pursuits for the day and eagerly prepared for our afternoon adventure in Downtown Calgary. The city buzzed with excitement as we explored the CORE mall, browsing through popular stores like H&M, Nike, and Sephora. A highlight was our visit to a Souvenir shop, where many of our students picked up Canadian classics to remember their time here.
The excitement continued as we hopped on a train to a Vietnamese restaurant for dinner. Steaming bowls of Pho warmed us up as we recounted our favourite parts of the day and shared newfound experiences. Some of our students even had Satay soup which made their mouths extra spicy! As the day drew to a close, we headed back to SAIT, marvelling at the breathtaking sunset merging with rainy clouds, painting the sky with hues of orange and purple—an unforgettable sight that perfectly capped our day.
Before bedtime, we celebrated our Student of the Day, Kristian, whose warmth, kindness, and positive attitude brightened everyone's day. His welcoming nature and inclusive spirit embodied the Wynchemna values, making him a well-deserved recipient of this honor.
As the night settled in and campers retired to their rooms, the air buzzed with excitement for the adventures yet to come. Summer Camp Wynchemna isn’t just a place to learn and explore—it’s a community where friendships are forged, memories are made, and each day brings new opportunities for growth and discovery. Today was a very good day indeed, leaving us eagerly awaiting what tomorrow will bring at Summer Camp Wynchemna.
