July 10th, 2020 - Summer Camps Cancelled.
Please note that we have just been given another notice from the provincial government that we are to be closed for another two weeks, until July 22nd. This has been the ongoing communication we have had with them since school's were mandated to close in March and we anticipate that come July 22nd we will be given a similar notice until school resumes in the fall.
Due to the uncertainty as to when we will be able to re-open, we had unfortunately no choice but to cancel all summer camp programming at this time. We thank you for your interest and hope to be able to offer more camps in the future, or possible workshops later in the summer.
Thank you for your understanding and we are looking forward to welcoming our students back in September, creating a safe environment for them to heal from this pandemic and resume their learning.

Children will spend the morning practicing diverse shooting exercises on the ground using a recurve bow. Afternoons will be spent doing craft projects and camp leaders will tell stories of archers from long ago! All archery equipment will be provided. Archery sessions will be around 45 minutes per day. Astronomy Camp
August 10 – August 14 Explore and learn what lies beyond the Earth, from the solar system to distant galaxies. Through crafts, experiments and activities children will be amazed to explore these distant and inspiring worlds. The camp will be facilitated by Simon McMillan, a professional astronomer, who has many years of experience delivering programming to students. Colour and Movement an artistic week
August 17 - August 21 Parzival, a medieval story for our time, tells of a young man who is a “pure fool”, which means that he is innocent and good. His path to adulthood leads him slowly through struggles to an understanding of the world and of relationships. With the saga in the background we will explore how colours in watercolor painting can express qualities and movements that live in the heart. The journey through darkness to light will be revealed as the birth place of colour. The day will be balanced by periods of movement (improvisation, movement, play). No painting experience necessary. (Parzival is a medieval romance written by the knight-poet Wolfram von Eschenbach in Middle High German. The poem, commonly dated to the first quarter of the 13th century, centers on the Arthurian hero Parzival (Percival in English) and his long quest for the Holy Grail following his initial failure to achieve it.) Ages 12 - 18
Bike Repair Camp
August 24 - August 28 We are so excited to be partnering with Kunstadt Sports to offer a Bike Repair Camp. Participants will learn all about how bikes work, how to fix them, and of course will have opportunities to ride them as well on the paths along the Rideau canal. This camp is hands on with the assistance of a professional bike mechanic. |
