Arts & Adventures Classic Summer Camps 2023 (Royal York Campus)

Arts & Adventures Classic Summer Camps 2023 (Royal York Campus)

Oak Learners offers a unique summer camp experience designed to engage naturally inquisitive and active children. 

Mindfulness: In addition to participating in guided yoga and meditation exercises, campers will participate in specially designed self-awareness activities, giving each camper time to be introspective, ask questions, relax and be creative.
STEAM: Through Science-Technology-Engineering-Arts-Math activities, campers will have the opportunity to develop their social skills, confidence and cognitive flexibility. 
Community: Campers will spend as much time outdoors as possible, enjoying local field trips that are designed to encourage them to explore their natural surroundings and develop an understanding of their own roles in nature and in our surrounding community.

What to expect at Arts & Adventures Camp:

At our Arts & Adventures Camp, campers will spend the day doing a variety of planned activities which are both indoors and outdoors. They will learn, explore their creative side, have fun and make new friends.

Activities are based on the weekly themes which have been carefully planned by our camp counsellors. Campers will have the opportunity to spend time outside in the local community and try new activities. If you want your child to have a structured and enjoyable week, our Arts & Adventures Camp is the place to go.

Activities may include:

• Nature trails
• Arts and crafts creations
• Composing music
• Mindfulness events
• Sports and challenges
• Trip to local parks
• Team games and team-building activities
• Science experiments

Campers will also have the opportunity to visit local splash pads and wading pools and you will be notified of “water days” to help pack accordingly.
