VAC Enrichment
During VAC Enrichment programs, students not only learn, but also identify ways to give back to the community with their learnings under the guidance of experienced teachers. This is different from other programs in that students immediately see the impact they’re making, sparking an interest in entrepreneurship and community service. The curriculum is based around the principle that every session, students experience a personal growth moment by completing something entrepreneurial that they can show off to others in their lives. This helps them fall in love with entrepreneurship and feel empowered.

Cooking through History
In this engaging and interactive course, we will journey through history by exploring the diverse cuisines that have shaped cultures and societies across the globe. Each session will focus on a different historical period or region, delving into the ingredients, cooking methods, and culinary traditions that defined the era. From ancient civilizations to modern-day culinary trends, students will discover how food has influenced historical events, trade, and cultural exchanges. Through discussions, hands-on activities, and tasting experiences, this course offers a unique perspective on history—through the lens of the food that sustained and inspired people throughout the ages.


Pokemon: Build and Battle
Welcome to Pokémon: Build & Battle, where the world of Pokémon meets math, literacy, and strategic thinking! This program invites young trainers to explore the art of building powerful Pokémon trading card decks, while developing essential skills in problem-solving, mathematics, literacy, and strategic decision-making. Students will have the chance to battle each other within a fun, competitive, and supportive learning environment. Each day will focus on building different aspects of the game—deck construction, understanding card abilities, math for calculating damage, reading comprehension for card details, and strategy for winning battles. By the end of the program, students will participate in a culminating tournament where they can showcase their skills!
