Summer Camp: July 5-16, Ages 8-9

The Explorer’s day is divided into separate activity periods, punctuated by breaks for recreation and social time. Each day includes hands-on projects with both Arts and Tech activities, and at least one full period of physical activity (an organized sport like Fencing, or an outdoors adventure in a local nature area).

The Explorers often take fun movement breaks during their activites – for example, taking a pause from building robots to get up and dance like robots! This keeps them active throughout the entire day, developing their bodies as well as their minds.

During lunch, Explorers take a trip to Trenholme Park, and on occasion they escape the heat by visiting a nearby splash pad.

Each group of Explorers is approximately 12 campers, who are supervised by 2 Counsellors in addition to the Instructors for each Activity. The Counsellors provide consistency and comfort for the campers, as friendly helpers who are there every day for the whole session.

The Counsellors provide extra assistance during the activities, so that campers can go at their own pace. The Counsellors also help campers get to know each other during the break periods, so they can create meaningful friendships. The combination of Instructors and Counsellors provides an average 4-to-1 ratio of campers-to-supervisors, ensuring that Explorations is a physically and socially safe space for your child.
