Students in Film Making Class


Short Hills' Wet Day and Water Balloon Toss!

 Campers in Short Hills had so much fun at Wet Day today! We had water shooters, a dunk tank, and of course some water balloons. We also had a water balloon toss at the end!













Lemonade! Lemonade! Get Your Ice-Cold Lemonade! Edison - Week 4

     At Edison this week, three students are taking Lemonade Stand Entrepreneur! During the week, the students have been quite busy coming up with the perfect lemonade recipe to sell for their potential customers. With the perfect amount of "business smarts" and "top-notch cooking skills," students came up with the best lemonade at International Ivy. The students are eagerly awaiting to sell their lemonade this Friday! Check out all the fun that is going on in Lemonade Stand! 



     "Our class was fun, and we were able to understand businesses and how to attract customers.  We were able to make are own lemonade, taste it, and advertise it.  In addition to the people at International Ivy, we are also hoping that regular passers might buy some too!  50% of our profit will be donated to the Red Cross.  I am really looking forward to Friday, and we all hope that people will buy our lemonade." - Student A

     "It was my favorite class so far, and I will always remember this class as a great experience. We learned a lot such as learning how to attract customers, advertising, and how to make actual lemonade! I hope that we will be able to attract kids in International Ivy as well as strangers. I can't wait for Friday and since we are donating to the Red Cross and I hope we are going to attract plenty of customers!" - Student B

An Impromptu Camper Commercial From Far Hills

The campers at Far Hills got super creative during their morning break today. Instead of playing cards or soccer, they made an entire video! Check out the commercial little geniuses made about their favorite camp! Are you as impressed as we are?



International Ivy is awesome!

The students are working on their gel transfers. The gel lift is done by coating a digital print with acrylic gel and then rubbing off the paper once it dries. The final product is a beautiful transparent photo (seen below). 




Both of the girls are very proud of their completed series. They worked hard to edit down their collections to cohesive photos that work incredibly well as a group!






The Inch Worm Robot at Far Hills

It's only the first day in Robotics and the campers have already made some really cool robots!

Edison Web Designers Finish up a Great Week

"This was the BEST WEEK OF CAMP EVER! First of all, I got to create the awesomest website that's all about tennis and is really really really awesome! I hope that a lot of people check it out and like it!
I also had fun during the break times. We got to play things like dodge ball and trivia quizzes and soccer tournaments! We also got green t-shirts that said International Ivy Enrichment Program on it and wore them on Friday and got to wear our pajamas on Thursday. I had tons of fun and learned a ton of things at the same time! I can't wait till i come back here again!
P.S. I had the best teacher ever! Her name is Nicole and she plays music while you work and is really nice!"

"Going to Website Design at International Ivy Summer Enrichment Programs was a very valuable experience. I now have and operate my own website, called Robert Brandl's Burgers and Brats, containing German and American grilling recipes. Throughout the week I added my recipes, photos, links and more incredible features. We also worked on HTML coding. I was so excited about this that I created a different HTML site. My site is now finished and I am excited to show it to my parents. I would like to thank our teacher for the week, Nicole, and also Sherry, who helped a lot with different widgets and plugins."
