Peterborough Summer Day Camps

Ages 4-11

Day Camp & Kinder Camp – Ages 4-11

Our Day Camp and Kinder Camp programs are an awesome introduction to summer camp for our youngest campers. These camps run Monday to Friday and are a great chance for young campers to connect with the natural world and each other, while enjoying all the beauty and fun that our clear lake camp has to offer! The Kinder Camp program is for children aged 4-6 (must be 4 years of age as of the start date for their session), and our Day Camp is for children aged 7-11.

Each day, our Day Campers and Kinder Campers will have the opportunity to engage in a host of camp-classic and nature-based activities. Campers will swim, participate in crafts, nature hour, and enjoy lots and lots of time outdoors! In a given week, campers will have the opportunity to engage in either sailing or canoeing and will soar to new heights on our rock-wall!

Day Camp and Kinder Camp begin at 8:30 each morning and run until 3:30pm. All our programs run rain or shine. We’re looking forward to having your little ones at camp and giving them an awesome Camp Kawartha introduction at Day Camp this summer!

What parents are saying about our Day Camps…

“Day camp at camp kawartha allows our kids to start getting a real camp experience at a young age. The spirit of the camp shines of goodness, laughter and delight! I am confident that I am sending my children to a place that nurtures the values of environmental stewardship, fun and play in the outdoors!”

“We all had a wonderful week at Camp Kawartha. My 3 kids are still talking about it! I cannot forget the tremendous patience and time that you gave to my youngest day camper; it meant so much to me, and him! Thank you for all the wonderful Camp Kawartha memories and experiences that have followed us back home to Virginia. See you next summer!”

“My son had a rich experience, even in the 3-day camp. At the end of the day he was both inspired and tuckered out from all of the fun and learning. I am thrilled as a parent that he was immersed in fresh air, a natural environment and was engaged in physical and learning activities! “

“Our kids could not have had a more enriching camp experience! The councillors lead with compassion and make every learning experience fun for the campers. We feel so lucky to be a part of the camp Kawartha community.”
