Crescent Camps offers the best of Crescent School, through our variety of one-week summer programs. Our camps for boys and girls ages 4-13 encourage creativity, innovation, and collaboration. Exceptional staff, including Crescent faculty and alumni, deliver Arts, Robotics & Technology, Sports, Nature, and Business programs with enthusiasm and expertise.
We emphasize a "challenge by choice" mindset to our programming, encouraging campers to take small steps outside their comfort zone in a safe environment. With each camp lasting one week, campers set goals for the week through project-based learning. From designing a dream home in Budding Architects, to building a robot in our Robotics camps, children learn how to work collaboratively with others, regardless of their experience level. Being situated in Toronto, we are lucky to have an expansive green space and trail system. By utilizing this space for our low ropes course, nature hikes, and shelter building, campers can enjoy traditional camp experiences in the comfort of a Toronto day camp.

Many independent schools are fortunate to have beautiful grounds, modern and professionally equipped facilities and highly experienced faculty, and that’s particularly true at Crescent. Where many day camps offer robotics, they can’t, for example, also offer theatre arts out of a fully equipped theatre facility, or printmaking out of a fully equipped studio. Crescent can—and does—do all of that and more. There’s also an ease that comes with having it all in one place; while campers have the option of doing ultimate frisbee one week and arts the next, the location allows them and their parents to fall in to some longer-term routines in terms of daily transportation and schedules. (And the fact that lunch is included is, from the parental perspective at least, kind of thrilling.) The camp is close to public transportation as well as a wealth of multi-use green space, including play fields and the ravine that abuts the property. Home to a low-ropes course, the ravine also offers abundant opportunity for exploration and nature study. There are programs here that you won’t find anywhere else, such as Architectural Concepts and Design and Money Matters, a session presenting financial literacy concepts. The Discovery Camp allows fun opportunities for younger campers to explore athletics, arts, makerspace and nature, combining these themes with different activities each week. Most of the programs are led by Crescent faculty who have expertise in their area of athletics, arts, robotics and business. Instructors who are not Crescent faculty have extensive expertise in the program areas, previous camp leadership experience, and are often alumni of the school. Ultimately, there’s a lot to love, particularly for campers who are looking for programming that falls outside the typical day-camp fare.
