With summer in full swing, our St. Nicholas Cathedral School Summer Camp is bubbling with the joyful energy, curiosity, and creativity of our kids! Each week of camp focuses on a meaningful theme that helps our children grow, explore, and connect.
We began our camp journey with Week 1: Kindness – a beautiful and powerful theme that reminded us how even the smallest act of compassion can have a ripple effect. Kindness fosters empathy, builds strong relationships, and creates a safe, supportive environment where everyone can thrive. Every day, through games, discussions, and the warm guidance of our teachers and counselors, campers explored the power of kind actions and the importance of being thoughtful toward friends, family, and even strangers.
Our campers experienced kindness in action—as SNCS’s friend Mr. Bill showed us just that by treating all our campers and staff to delicious pizza in celebration of Juneteenth! In return, our campers practiced kindness by creating thoughtful thank-you notes to show their appreciation. 🍕❤️
Thank you, Mr. Bill, for your generosity and for helping us make the day extra special!
This week, our campers will dive into the exciting world of science. Stay tuned… the adventure continues!✨📸👀

Although the school year has come to a close and we’re now fully immersed in summer camp fun, we still wanted to our share our 1st and 4th grade student field trip to the Ukrainian National Museum, where they encountered the Vyshyvanyi Rushnyk — an embroidered towel that has been traveling the world since 2014.🌍🧵
This one-of-a-kind “Rushnyk” features embroidery styles from every region of Ukraine, symbolizing unity through shared heritage. As it journeys from country to country, Ukrainian communities contribute a new stitch, making it a living, evolving work of folk art. One section even includes an embroidered Statue of Liberty.🇺🇸🧵
Our students were truly inspired — they asked questions like: Where will it go next? How long does it take to make one section? Some even left the museum dreaming of learning to embroider themselves. Don’t be surprised if you hear about an SNCS Embroidery Club starting soon! 😉
We are grateful to the Ukrainian National Museum for hosting us and sharing this beautiful expression of culture and resilience.🇺🇦🧵 🖼️📚❤️
