{Our time at Camp Kawartha was fantastic. Our students had a perfect mix of activity and free time to help them be ready for each program. The programs were educational and engaging, but the knowledgeable staff and their positive attitude really made each program special. Good food, good accommodations and constant communication helped us provide a memorable experience for our students.

{Camp Kawartha continues to be a positive experience for our students. The staff are as kind as they are knowledgeable, and bring warmth to the camp experience, even of cool fall days/nights.

{This camp is fantastic at bringing out the best in our students, social, academic and mental capabilities within the outdoor learning environment. The food was great. I would recommend this to every school and class age or grade level. Excellent job.

{In our teacher debrief on our cabin deck last night, what came out again and again was the quality of the staff here. They are highly experienced, well trained, professional outdoor educators who know the site and program curriculum we. There is a clear commitment to the quality of the work in your staff culture, and a consistency in the high standards of care. This must have taken decades of staff recruiting and development. Thank you. We will recommend Camp Kawartha to any school.

{Avalon Montessori School has been attending Camp Kawartha for over a decade. We have visited in the spring and winter. The facilities are wonderful - rustic yet clean and modern. The staff is knowledgeable and passionate about the environment and sharing their knowledge with the students. They are always kind and supportive and work well with all students, including those who are neurodiverse.

{We have a great time at Camp Kawartha every year. We bring our grade 6 class who is leaving our school and they have an amazing time bonding and spending time together in nature. It is always so well organized and well run. The food is always delicious and the cabins are so clean. We love coming here!

{Our grade 7’s had an amazing time at camp! For some of them, this was the first time that they stayed away from home and their first experience at camp. Their excitement going in was high, but their satisfaction coming out was even higher. The programming was excellent, the staff were friendly, kind and knowledgeable, and the food was delicious. Thank you to everyone at camp for making the a memorable experience for our staff and students

{We’ll be back next year! Amazing staff and programs.

{The staff at CK were friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about their vocation. Our Intermediate students were given a special opportunity for memories sure to be with them for a lifetime.

"The importance of learning about environmental sustainability cannot be overstated. In today's rapidly changing world, equipping our students with the knowledge and skills to address environmental challenges is crucial. This program not only educated them about the significance of preserving our natural resources but also empowered them to take action within their communities.

Overall, the experiential learning provided by Camp Kawartha has been an invaluable asset to our students' education. It has inspired a new generation of environmentally conscious individuals, ready to lead and advocate for a sustainable future. We are immensely grateful for this partnership and the lasting impact it has made on our students' lives. I have been an advocate for the importance of Camp Kawarthas programs over the last decade and the importance in our school board and we look forward to our continued partnership."
