Offered in the German International School Toronto on Burnhamthorpe Rd., this location has run since 2022. The camp makes use of two large halls for indoor games on rainy days, and other smaller rooms for craft-making lessons, and our weekly theme activity sessions. For outdoor activities, the location has a large lawn, and it is within walking distance from the Montgomery's Meadow and the Tom Riley Park where campers can go when the weather permits.

At our summer camp, we have weekly themes in order to make each week different and entertaining to our campers. Moreover, these fun themes will provide an opportunity to teach our campers about a particular topic including field trips to destinations in the city that relate to the theme of the week like the Ripley's Aquarium for Underwater World week, or the ROM for the Dinosaurs week. Campers are divided into age groups: 5 to 6 year-olds and 7 to 10 year-olds.
In partnership with the German International School of Toronto (GIST), we offer our German immersion camp at this location. See the schedule for our camp program below. The weekly themes are the same for all groups:
