Camp in July

The Junior Program is a stepping stone for young campers to enter the world of enriching learning!

For many of our campers, this is their first time coming to camp, so our experienced Junior Activity Leaders provide a structured, safe environment and gentle guidance.

Each Junior Activity Leader introduces an age-appropriate theme during the camper’s first day at camp. Previous years’ themes include Outer Space, Ancient Egypt, Safari and many more. Throughout the two weeks, campers participate in multidisciplinary activities touching on arts, science, tech, music and sports designed to broaden their knowledge of the Session’s theme.

Daily Schedule

All of our groups are led by a qualified teacher who is aided by one of our Counsellors in Training. They start the morning with music, science and physical education activities led by specialists.

Campers also go outside daily – weather permitting and spend some time at the nearby park and splash pad in the afternoons.

Camp in August

In August, we offer smaller sessions of summer activities at the Learning Lab (6591 Somerled Ave in NDG). They run for one week each, and focus on specific topics, allowing campers to explore the subject in depth and create impressive projects.

Daily Schedule

Every day, campers will dive into a variety of workshops centered around the week’s theme. Mornings are spent learning new skills, which are then put to use in exciting projects during the afternoon. Campers will have the chance to work on individual projects and collaborate with fellow campers in team activities.

At lunch, campers spend some time outdoors at the nearby park, occasionally cooling down at the Splash Pad. Our Junior campers will also enjoy plenty of break time throughout the day to socialize, play, and recharge for more fun-filled activities.

Of course! Each day’s schedule includes at least two hours outside, weather-permitting, and is mostly outings to the neighbouring parks, Benny or Trenholme. These outings include time at the splash pad, animated games, and free play. As such, please don’t forget to pack in your child’s bag an extra labeled bottle of sunscreen that they can reapply prior to these trips as well as a sun hat and water bottle.

No, the Junior Program does not include any trips to swimming pools for safety reasons, but the Juniors do frequently visit the neighbouring splash pads, so please make sure to prepare a swimsuit, swim shoes, sunscreen and a towel.

No, the Junior Campers do not have a nap time during the day.
