HUN CAMP
“
Hun Camp’s values have always equaled our values as a family. I think it is very important that the children are very nice to one another and I see that at Hun Camp.” — Hun Camp Parent
At Hun Camp, we share our values of kindness, respect, and cooperation with each Hun Camper and inspire campers to have fun. From our innovative games, themed weeks and dining hall lunches, to our culminating talent show, we provide a safe environment for campers to unleash their imagination, build lasting friendships, and capture memories that will last a lifetime. Our veteran staff of Hun faculty are assisted by aspiring educators, many of whom were campers themselves. Together, they give campers the ability to push their limits and gain new life skills through swimmings lessons, organized athletics, and experiential education. The result is a lifelong Hun Camp community. Come join us!
HUN SUMMER SCHOOL The Hun Summer School has served a vital purpose for many years by allowing students both to move ahead in credit courses and sharpen their skills with enrichment courses. Through individual and personalized attention, we meet all students where they are and help them advance to the next level. We believe that:
Students love to learn when they are in an environment that takes them seriously
and pushes them beyond their own limitations in a creative way.
Parents and families should feel comfortable and confident with their children
thriving in a healthy, safe, and fun environment.
Who We Are The Hun School of Princeton empowers each student to thrive in a diverse and

Trips for Boarding Students Traveling off campus during the three-week session is a major component of the curriculum. Before each trip, teachers discuss how to get the most from each experience and will assign specific assignments related to the trip. During the program, students travel throughout the Princeton area, to New York City, and to other iconic east coast locations. Last summer, students went rafting in Pennsylvania, visited the Constitution Center in Philadelphia, and went to a Broadway Show and dinner in New York.
