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 like arts and crafts and cooking, 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.

Do the Junior Campers spend time outside?
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.
Do the Junior Campers visit a swimming pool?
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.
Is there a naptime period during the day?
No, the Junior Campers do not have a nap time during the day.
