Amazing

"I am continually impressed with Ridley College camps (summer and march break), the quality of staff, facilities, activities! Amazing. I know my son will have a good time every time he goes to camp. I really appreciate how the music academy recorded the kids performances as the parents could not attend. I love the photo album at the end of summer also! And the weekly 'award' certificates were really appreciated, to let the kids know what they did that was good/helpful/friendly/cooperative! ... Show More

Organization

" The organization of the programs, including pick ups and drop offs, lunch in the dining halls, the number of counsellors was amazing, and the familiarity of the grounds (I'm an OR). I also LOVED not having to pack a lunch and I knew she was having a good meal daily :) "

OUR KIDS review of Ridley College Summer Programmes

our take

The Ridley summer programs are robust and well attended. More than 1800 enrol each summer, so in a sense the camps have a population that doubles and then some the student population on campus during the school year. The reason they are so popular is because they are so well run. The symphony sessions—there’s one for young musicians who compete for spots, another for tyros—are staffed by members of the Niagara Symphony Orchestra. They’re the only true symphony camps of their kind in the country. Other offerings range across a fairly wide swath of interest, including those that appeal to international students, to those programmed with local kids in mind. It’s a great mix, and even though kids are in different sessions, many of them are run consecutively, allowing a nice interaction between young people of like interest as with as those with divergent interest. The campus is frankly gorgeous, with a wealth of green space. The facilities, too, are top-notch, including outdoor ed equipment, two professional-level performing arts spaces, and a wealth of resources. The camps make extensive use of all of it. The ESL camps are some of the best in the region and beyond. The attraction is multi-faceted, and the proximity to Niagara Falls and Toronto are included within that. The ESL sessions provide international students with a strong camp experience, a residence with peers from around the world, and an intensive language immersion and instruction. In those, and across the summer programs, there’s a lot to love.
