Sunnyside Up Camp

We teach our young athletes basic core motor skills and coordination through interactive team-building games. We focus on building confidence & character while working on universal athletic skills such as spacial awareness, hand-eye & foot-eye coordination, accuracy, and critical decision making.

Sunnyside Up campers explore a wide variety of educational activities to learn and experience science first-hand. We believe that campers learn best through fun and hands-on experiments that they can later use in their everyday lives.

At Sunnyside Up, our art program is based on campers’ interests and driven by their creativity. Our camp focuses on interest-based skill-building, imagination-building, and creativity. We challenge our campers to create their artwork, sculptures and masterpieces to reflect the true artist within them!

One of our missions at camp is to educate and encourage our campers to prioritize their health and wellness through a number of activities. During this time we focus on teaching our campers how to manage stress better, the benefits of balanced nutrition, the basics of first aid, and the positive effects of yoga and mindfulness. 

We will be going on a Field Trip every week during our original Summer program. Our original program includes trips to Kids Town Water Park, High Park and so many more fun and adventure filled places! During the last two weeks of summer we will be going on a trip every day! Trips to places like the Toronto Zoo, the Ontario Science Centre, Brooks Farms and so many more awesome trips!

Through team spirit activities, each class works as a team to create a team cheer, dance, and flag. By working as a team, children develop important life skills like problem solving, listening, leadership, and creative thinking. Through these activities, children develop higher levels of self-confidence, self-esteem, empathy, and compassion. At the end of the week, the whole camp has a cheer off to show off their cheer, dance, and flag. 

We believe that cooking can help children learn and practice basic math concepts, language skills and build their problem solving skills. Through our cooking activities we keep our campers engaged and help them lay the foundation for healthy eating habits. Without the use of a stove and minimal prep work, the campers are able to create delicious treats and then enjoy their creations! 

Our carefully selected STEAM activities encourage campers to think critically and learn about the world around us. Our lesson plans are created by an OCT certified teacher with the diversity of our campers' ages and skill level in mind. Through these activities, campers will get the chance to experiment and discuss various topics with their counselors and peers.

What better way to end the week than with a themed day! Every Friday our camp will be transformed into a themed extravaganza where we will go ALL OUT on the weekly theme! For example, on the Friday of Halloween week we dress up in our costumes and set up a spooky haunted house!
