Kallpachay's camp programs are a perfect blend of spirit days, games, experimentation, singing, dancing, crafts, food projects, and cultural celebrations. Our positive and encouraging atmosphere helps every camper from beginner to advanced speakers begin or continue learning Spanish at a relaxed summer pace. Collaborating in teams as well as independently on diverse projects helps campers develop confidence while exploring their creativity, and their development and personal growth build exponentially from week to week.

Our approach is layered; we broaden our campers’ cultural awareness and communication skills while we excite the senses through the arts and sciences.
