Summer Camps – Ottawa

Learning Never Stops at Academie de la Capitale! Every summer, we open our doors to students of all ages by offering various summer day camps: a Kinder camp for children aged 4-5, an i.S.T.E.A.M. camp for ages 6-10 and a Coding & Robotics Camp for children aged 8 and up. 

Our camps combine indoor learning activities and outdoor play. Every day programming includes campers  of all ages participating in a specialized Athletik programme, focusing on various independent and group sports skills each week. 

The day camps operate from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm, Monday to Friday (except on holidays), with a morning and afternoon supervision option that allows for drop offs as early as 8:30 am and pickups as late as 5:25 pm. We offer Monday pizza and Tuesday-Friday lunch options as well.

SUMMER SMILE 2024:
READING & WRITING PROGRAMME:

Daily Orton Gillingham Literacy Teaching Sessions for Campers (4 weeks)

For students with reading and writing difficulties, we offer Orton Gillingham-based SMILE sessions, in addition to the activities provided during our AcadeCAMP or AcadeCODERS sessions. The OG SMILE sessions will be offered for 45 minutes, 5 times a week (4 times a week during holiday weeks), and the participant must register for at least 4 weeks, or preferably all summer, in order for the programme to be effective. If a student has not been evaluated previously, pre- and post- testing will be provided. With the Orton Gillingham approach, a student learns using the visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and tactile senses simultaneously.  The OG SMILE sessions will take place within the 9:00 am – 4:00 pm camp day.  For more information regarding summer reading enrichment, kindly contact email us at info@acadecap.org.
