Extended Hours - Supervision

Using the campus’ natural setting, playgrounds, turf field, gymnasium and pool, these times are unscheduled; allowing for a relaxed morning warm-up or afternoon cool-down for campers.
There are two supervision groups, one for children in Lower Camp and one for children entering Grade One and above.

Drop off and pick up locations are not manned until the appropriate hours of operation.
