Woodinville Montessori School
SCHOOL YEAR CAMP
WMS offers day camps for enrolled students by reservation on conference, faculty in-service days and school breaks during the school year. There are 15 camp days in the 2024-2025 school year (see calendar; camp days are marked in blue). Before-and-after camp care is an additional fee, if available. Camps may include an additional field trip or materials fee.
Camp registration opens two weeks prior to the camp date. Families enrolled in Option A (Full-Year Care) receive priority registration (see our Before & After-School Care page for more information). If space is available, WMS will publish reminders in our email communications until spots are filled. Waitlists may apply.

We’re excited to offer 9 fun-filled weeks of camp this summer from June 23 - August 20, 2025, packed with adventure, creativity, and learning! Toddler camp is a continuation of the regular school year program but in weekly sessions. Early Childhood camp offers a variety of summer outdoor and indoor activities, with increased time for free play. Registration opens Feb. 24, 2025. Space is limited, register early!
Week 1: June 23-27, 2025; Week 2: June 30-July 3, 2025 (4-day Week); Week 3: July 7-11, 2025; Week 4: July 14-18, 2025; Week 5: July 21-25, 2025; Week 6: July 28-August 1, 2025; Week 7: August 4-8, 2025; Week 8: August 11-15, 2025; Week 9: August 18-20, 2025 (3-Day Week). Please note: No Toddler or Early Childhood camp/child care is available from June 18-20, 2025, or August 21-September 2, 2025. Families should plan alternate care.
Camp Hours:
- Regular camp: 8:45 a.m. - 3:15 p.m.
- Add-on options: AM care (8:00 a.m. start) & PM care (until 5:30 p.m.)
Eligibility & Enrollment:
- Open only to currently enrolled WMS students from the 2024-2025 school year. Newly admitted students for the upcoming 2025-2026 school year are not eligible to enroll. Priority enrollment is given to students returning for the 2025-2026 school year.
- Toddler students will remain in Toddler Camp unless otherwise approved by the classroom teacher and program director.
- While all current Early Childhood families are welcome to register for Early Childhood Summer Camp, for current Kindergarten students moving up to Lower Elementary next year, we recommend looking into our new Elementary offering, Steve & Kate’s Camp, hosted at our Bothell Campus, for summer fun!
Elementary
This summer, we are partnering with Steve & Kate's Camp to host their programs at our Bothell Campus from June 23 - August 22, 2025! (Steve & Kate's are looking into providing a special week of camp from August 25-29, 2025. More details to come!)
Steve & Kate's Camp serves kids ages 4-12 and will replace our WMS Elementary summer camp programs. WMS will still hold Toddler and Early Childhood camps this summer. We recommend that families with children in our Early Childhood program stay with our WMS programs for consistency, but the choice may vary depending on your child. Steve & Kate's Camp is open to students outside of the WMS community.
For more information about Steve & Kate's Camp, click here. Registration is now open, and will remain open on a rolling basis through the summer.
Steve & Kate's Camp aligns well with Montessori principles of self-direction, independence, care for the environment, and peer-to-peer learning. They offer innovative programming, including coding and robotics, breadmaking, sewing and knitting, and even making animated movies. Children from Montessori schools tend to love Steve & Kate's Camp because of the wide variety of activities offered and its "free-range" structure of learning.
Another fantastic benefit of Steve & Kate's is that registration will not max out, even up until the day of camp. Parents can buy any number of Day Passes (or a Summer Pass if you plan on attending 30+ days) and use them whenever you want during the summer. Day Pass and Summer Pass fees cover the entire Steve & Kate’s experience, including lunch, snacks, activities and the entire day from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. There is also tremendous flexibility for families: any days you buy and don't use will be refunded at the end of the summer. Families can apply directly for need-based aid through Steve & Kate's Camp, WMS tuition assistance does not apply.
