Back-to-School Transition Learning Camp
Program Description
The Back-to-School Transition Camp is designed to help campers transition back into the formal classroom setting through structured learning and academic support.
Campers will be separated by ability and grade level to receive targeted reviewing in key subjects. Material and comprehension covered will follow areas of reading, writing, and mathematics based on appropriate curriculum expectations. Children will explore the benefits of study habits, organization skill alongside instructors, and build understanding of classroom behaviour through different models of learning.
This camp provides a supportive, focused, and low-stress environment to help children transition back into learning and start the new school year strong and self-assured.
