Most campers will tell you that they learned the most language "just around". However, a child who speaks very little French or who is shy or nervous will benefit greatly from language classes. A camper can remain in the class for any number of 3 day cycles during her stay.

Language specialists provide optional conversation classes at no extra cost.

All campers must be fluent in either French or English to be registered as a camper. A child who speaks little or none of her second language should take the class - it will give her confidence as well as knowledge. Campers can take the classes for one or two cycles - they don't HAVE to remain in them for their entire summer.

Groups are small (6-8 campers each), and are offered in three levels: Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced. The classes focus on vocabulary development and fluency. You and your daughter can be relieved... they are not at all like school!
All campers take language lessons unless specified by parents not to, or if they are strong enough in their second language to not need language lesssons.

All campers participate in swimming lessons if they have not completed their final level of learn to swim (or equivalent level)

Water activities require certain swimming strengths which is determined during our swim evaluation. If campers do not have the appropriate bracelet for an activity, they may not participate. But can always re-do their swim evaluation.

Camp doctors need to be informed of any recent illness, before campers arrival at camp.

All families must include two (2) emergency contacts.

Daily routine

Our official language alternates between french and English every two days.Instructions, games, announcements and other camp "business" are communicated in the official language of the day. Naturally, if a situation requires switching to a camper's native language, our staff will act accordingly!
We will always make sure your daughter understands what's going on around her, and her safety and well being is our priority. Sundays are bilingual.
