MINI-UNIVERSITY PROGRAM
In our one of a kind Mini-University curriculum campers are given instruction catered to individual learning levels and age. Campers are taught, amongst other subjects, reading, writing, math, social studies, geography, and drama. Each of our exceptional educators is certified through the Ontario College of Teachers and we also have bilingual teachers. Mini-University was created with the goal of having children retain information learned from the previous school year while preparing them for the upcoming one.
FRENCH LANGUAGE TRAINING Historically, John Fisher P.S. has been known for its French Immersion program. We at the CSA aim to honour and preserve this heritage by offering French language training for our students. As such, we've hired experienced TDSB teachers to carry on the John Fisher tradition to teach our campers in the immersion program where we have 7 or more french language sign ups in a specific age group.
ART PROGRAM (March Break)
For an entire week kids will get an opportunity to express their
creativity in a fun and
engaging environment. Camp will be taught by CSA national program
director Julie
Kroll who recently won a Canada-wide design contest competing with over
7000 people! Under her guidance, children will create a variety of
projects while
learning about concepts such as lines, shapes, colours, and textures.
SPORTS PROGRAM
Throughout the day campers are instructed in sports such as soccer, basketball, track and field, and volleyball, to name a few. Our specialist coaching staff consists of players and coaches and who have taught and played at the university and college levels in various sports. Our Leaders In Training (LITs) program also provides leadership opportunities for high school students. CSA affords LITs a summer job assisting instructors with sport specific training and activities.
