Willkommen zum:

Koch Camp!

Our native German speaking teachers are excited to welcome our campers to their summer adventure in the kitchen - cooking fun, delicious meals and field trips await in an immersive German setting. No prior German knowledge necessary. 

This is a bilingual camp, everybody is welcome.

During Kochschule students will be involved in every task that is needed to cook a meal: Campers will research recipes, write shopping lists, go shopping, prep ingredients, cook and bake, and clean up afterwards. We will also reserve time to go outside to enjoy a picnic or two. Campers will also go on at least one cooking-related full day field trip to an off-campus location.

If your camper has any dietary restrictions, please let us know during the registration process, so that we can plan substitutions. If your camper is vegan, you will have to help us with specialty substitutions.

Core hours for camp are 9am-3pm, but if you need before or after camp supervision, simply select these options during the registration process (see below for more details).
