Policies

 

Cancellation and Refund Policy

If programs are cancelled by Kanata Camps (or by provincial or local health authorities), all fees will be refunded in full to the same method of payment.

To cancel a camp registration, please email programs@kmscrhs.ca and clearly state your child’s name, the name of the camp, and the date of the camp. Cancellations cannot be done online.

Refunds will be provided up to 3 weeks (21 days) prior to the start date and subject to a $20 administration fee (this fee is waived if the amount is left as an account credit).

Within 3 weeks (21 days) of a program start date, refunds will not be issued other than in extraordinary circumstances, and with medical documentation.

Age Requirements

We believe that summer camp is a place to be independent and make new friends. Summer camp is for experiencing new things and building lifelong friendships. Careful thought has gone into setting up the age groups in advance of the summer to properly set all campers up for success.

The restrictions in the registration software have been set to account for campers whose birthday is close to the camp date, or within a couple of weeks, where appropriate. If you cannot register your child online due to an age restriction, we regret there will be no exceptions and we encourage you to select another age group for your preferred camp.

Nut-Free Policy

Kanata Camps is a peanut and tree nut-free environment.  There are campers who suffer from a life-threatening allergy to all peanuts and tree nuts. We ask for your cooperation in helping to keep these children safe by not sending your child to camp with any food containing peanut/tree nut products or traces of peanut/tree nuts.  No products that may contain or come into contact with peanuts/tree nuts are allowed on school property at any time 

Students who have severe allergies to such food substances are open to serious health risks when exposed to these substances in their environment or if it is shared with them. Please speak with your child/children about the seriousness of this life-threatening problem.

We realize this rule poses a challenge for you when packing your child's snacks and lunches. We wish to express our sincere appreciation for your support and understanding of this potentially fatal allergy. Your understanding and cooperation will go a long way in helping us provide for the health needs of these children.


The Camp Day

Each day starts and ends at our Main Campus at 355 Michael Cowpland Drive in Kanata, ON.

Some of the camp groups will depart and spend the majority of the day at other locations. For Outbound Camps, campers will be transported on a school bus. If arriving to camp after 9:15 am, please visit the reception desk at each location or find a member of the management team and we will help direct you to the group. If you need to collect your camper earlier, please call ahead or speak to the staff at drop off.
