Child & Youth Camp Programs

Let’s kick off summer with adventure, creativity, and nonstop fun! Our first week of ‘SILLY CAMP’ will give kids something exciting each day, with activities designed to spark imagination, encourage teamwork, and keep everyone active and smiling.

This 4-day week will include;

• Treasure Hunt Day: Campers become explorers as they follow clues, solve puzzles, and search for hidden treasure. Teamwork and problem-solving make this day a big adventure!
• Canada Day: Celebrate with red-and-white spirit! Campers will enjoy patriotic games, crafts, and activities that highlight fun Canadian traditions.
• Valentine’s Day: A day focused on kindness and friendship, with card-making, group activities, and sweet surprises to share with friends.  
• Halloween Day: Come dressed in your favorite costume for a spooky (but not too scary!) day filled with themed games, crafts, and festive fun. Throughout the week, campers will also enjoy outdoor play, group games, creative projects, and time to relax and socialize.

Our goal is to create a safe, inclusive, and energetic environment where kids can express themselves, try new things, and make lasting memories with new friends.

Campers will learn about wildlife, discover different animal habitats, and develop outdoor skills through hands-on activities and imaginative play.

Throughout the week, campers will become young explorers—participating in exciting nature scavenger hunts, learning about the world of animals through games, crafts, and storytelling. We’ll sing “campfire” songs and try teamwork challenges to create opportunities to build confidence, make new friends, and connect with the great outdoors.

Whether they’re pretending to trek through forests or learning how animals survive in the wild, campers will leave with lasting memories and a sense of adventure.

Get ready to roll up your sleeves — because this week is all about getting MESSY! 

Our Messy camp invites kids to dive into a world of hands-on creativity where it’s okay to squish, splatter, and explore. Campers will use their imaginations through exciting activities like finger painting masterpieces, mixing and stretching colorful slime, and creating their own gooey putty.

From paint splatters to sensory play stations, every day is packed with tactile fun that encourages creativity, curiosity, and self-expression. This camp is perfect for kids who love to experiment and aren’t afraid to get their hands dirty!

Warning: campers may come home messy — but they’ll also come home smiling! 

Get ready for a week of courage, kindness, and super-powered fun! Our “Heroes” camp celebrates both the larger-than-life characters we love and the real-life heroes who make a difference every day.  

Campers will create their own superhero identities — designing masks, inventing powers, and tackling exciting obstacle course! Through games, crafts, and imaginative storytelling, we will learn about everyday heroes in our communities — like firefighters, healthcare workers, teachers, and helpers of all kinds. Through engaging activities and discussions, campers will discover how small acts of kindness, bravery, and helping others can make a big impact.  

This inspiring week empowers children to see the hero within themselves — whether they’re saving the day in a cape or lending a helping hand to a friend.

Our STEAM Camp for ages 4 to 10 is all about fun, creativity, and learning through play!  

Kids will explore science, technology, engineering, art, and math with hands-on activities like simple experiments, building projects, art, crafts, and learning about technology! Each day brings new adventures that spark curiosity and imagination. Activities are designed for different age levels, so every child can feel comfortable and excited to participate.

Our friendly instructors create a safe and supportive space where kids can explore, ask questions, and make new friends. It’s the perfect place for young learners to have fun, try new things, and discover how exciting STEAM can be!
