About
The CompuGirls Hawaiʻi Camp welcomed 26 new campers and 6 peer mentors to Hawaiʻi Pacific Universityʻs downtown campus at Aloha Tower for our week-long residential camp. Campers came together from Oʻahu, Maui, and the Big Island to learn about cybersecurity, computer science and app coding, astronomy, marine science, and ecology.
From our first night, there was an obvious sense of teamwork among this cohort of campers! Upon arrival, we were able to gather and talk story to learn more about each other and the camp staff. Then, groups broke away in the dorms with their mentor teachers to have ice breaker sessions and create posters of their chosen “rules of engagement,” or how they wanted to treat each other and themselves for the duration of the camp.
Each group then shared their posters with the larger group and discussed their expectations for the week. These activities set the stage for a week of learning alongside one another in respectful and engaging ways.
