About the event
Our team is looking forward to welcoming children, ages 5 through 12, for another unforgettable day camp experience in Montreal’s Mount Royal Park this summer!
While playing and exploring, supported by the Earth; her trees and ample fresh air, campers will have the opportunity to expand on their curiosities and creativity, all while learning about the history of the land and cultivating a meaningful connection to it. Daily immersions in nature can foster a deeper appreciation for the environment and solidify our Oneness with it. The challenges that are bound to arise each day will undoubtedly strengthen physical skills, healthy social interactions, and emotional intelligence.
Our team of educators (qualified or in the process of completing certifications in Education) are committed to promoting an empathy-rich program that is inquiry-based and child-led. Easy-to-practice gratitude, mindfulness and breathwork techniques are organically woven into the daily routines. As usual, all daily snacks and lunches are provided! This camp is bilingual, though our main language of guidance and instruction is in English. It is a great opportunity for French-speakers to enhance their English-comprehension skills and each year we have many Francophone families joining. Campers are free to interact with counselors and friends, new and old, in the language of their choice.
This year we are answering the call to extend our services to include Fridays! Child in the Wild Nature Day Camp will commence each week of the summer (including holidays) on Mondays for 5 consecutive days before the next session begins the following Monday.
We are looking forward to reconnecting with old friends and meeting new ones! See you soon :)
