Camps & School Break

Summer Camps
Schools out, funs in! This summer, we’re excited for your child to join us for a season of growth and discovery with the diverse range of summer camps on offer (more than 80 if you can believe it!). They’ll experience the unforgettable as they unleash their inner artists, craft tasty creations, immerse themselves in nature, dance their hearts out, light up the stage, hit a home run, and dive into new adventures.
The summer camp season starts Monday, June 30. View our 2025 Summer eBrochure. As always, all program codes link directly to online registration at vaughan.perfectmind.com. An accessible version (PDF) of the eBrochure is also available.
The camp day is 8:30am to 4:30pm. Camp programming runs from 9am to 4pm. Before & After Care is available for campers who require care before the camp day begins, from 7:30-8:30am, and after the camp day has ended, from 4:30-6pm. Separate registration is required.
