Senior Elementary Specialty Camps
Our Senior Elementary Specialty Camps are focused on engaging those entering grades 4, 5, and 6 in the upcoming school year (campers ages 9 - 12) with specialty activities that are age-appropriate. All our Senior Elementary Specialty Camps will utilize the day to focus on fun learning with our specialty camp program partners. Each of these camps will take body breaks and spend a healthy amount of time outdoors.
For Summer 2024, our Specialty Camps include Mixed Media Art, Rock Band, Musical Theatre, and Coding and Robotics. Scroll below to find out more.
All Specialty camps are stand-alone camps. They are not progressive from week to week.
While the theme may be the same, the weeks are not repeats of each other. For example, while the Art Camp is offered week to week, the projects will vary. Therefore, it is appropriate to join any week.
For all the Senior Elementary Specialty Camps, total camp sizes are small and supervision is maintained at a high level by our camp program partners.
All of our Senior Elementary Specialty Camps will also include a pizza day each week, with vegetarian and lactose-free options available.
Registration is online ONLY
The Register button links directly to our online payment and registration system. We encourage you to add your child to the waitlist if camps are full so that you are the first to hear about increased spaces or additional camps. If you need assistance, please email programs@kmscrhs.ca.
