Windsor CSD Summer Program Recap - July 9
The first week of the Windsor CSD 2026 summer program finished on Thursday.
Knight Lights elementary camp rotated students through stations focusing on gross motor skills, fine arts, STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math), and literacy and numeracy.
Thursday’s highlights included students building birdhouses as part of this week’s them of inventions that help in nature. Campers also created balloon-powered cars to learn Netwon’s law of equal and opposite forces. Some students created art projects using materials they gathered on nature walks during the week.
Middle school students in the Windsor Strong Academy presented their kingdoms on Thursday. They explained kingdom rules and the story behind their crests. Students also had their passports stamped as they travelled from kingdom to kingdom.
Next week, Windsor Strong students will build castles and catapults. They will hold a catapult Olympics and use the catapults during a kingdom battle when each kingdom will try to destroy another kingdom’s castle.
Basketball, cheer, and wrestling camps continued. 55 basketball campers focused on moving without the basketball by cutting and setting screens while also learning the camp’s word of the day, accountability. 14 boys and girls varsity players volunteered to help run the camp.
Cheer campers recapped what they learned last week: cheers, stunting, tumbling, arm motions, and stretches.
Boys and girls wrestlers practiced Russian tie snap-downs from neutral. They also reviewed snap-down go-behinds, and double- and single-leg takedowns. Boys practiced arm-bar halves from top and a back-belly base drill from bottom.
Next week’s sports camps will be tennis, track and field, and swimming and diving.
