| Reptilia’s
Objectives For Your Camper |
Plan ahead for your child's Summer Holidays!
Enhancing our tradition, Reptilia has a great Summer camp this
year, for your camper ages 4-12. Reptilia offers a safe, exciting
and unforgettable Summer experience, where your camper can learn
about science related activities and enjoy all kinds of winter
fun at the same time.
Our campers enjoy different daily activities
including zoo tours, reptile related events, unique and interesting
arts & crafts, games, movies, role-plays, and a chance to
perform in our theatre.
Our camp counsellors make full use of our 25,000
square foot facility which to date is used by more than 3,000
schools and daycares in the GTA, to provide a safe and stimulating
environment in which your camper will enjoy themselves, meet other
camper friends, and learn about nature and the ecology.
Reptilia's goals for your camper are simple
– your camper will enjoy several of the many courses Reptilia
has developed to entertain and to make learning fun.
We will expand your camper's mind, give them
hands on experiences, and have them remember this Summer camp
as the best one they have ever attended!!
| Activities
In Our Facility |
We provide a safe, fun, and creative learning
environment where campers learn about nature through interacting
with our reptiles. Reptiles are the ‘vehicle’ we use
to teach students throughout Ontario in the ‘Life Strands’
section of the Ontario Education Ministry’s Science and
Technology Curriculum.
For most campers, one of the most exciting
parts of Summer camp is the hands on experiences with small harmless
reptiles.
We are very aware of the fear that some
campers may have of one or more types of reptiles, and we never
attempt to have any camper do anything that makes them feel uncomfortable.
Each camper decides on their level of participation and whether
or not to handle any reptile they may feel a bit uncomfortable
with. Funny thing is though, by the end of the week, the most
fearful campers are often first in line to help with cleaning,
care and feeding of the reptile they feared the most just a few
days ago.
The campers are divided into 3 different
groups which are:
If someone other than yourself is picking
up your camper, they must be pre-registered by you in person with
their driver’s license, which will be photocopied and placed
in your file.
Very Important: Your
camper will not be released to anyone unless their Driver’s
License is on file accompanied by your written permission (done
by our front desk at the time of booking or on the first day of
camp) permitting them to pick up your camper. Please arrange to
have this done prior to camp, as we do not deviate from this rule,
as our emphasis is always on the importance of ensuring your camper’s
complete safety.
