Day Camps

Our summer day camps offer campers entering Kindergarten through Grade 10 a unique and unforgettable experience, filled with fun activities, exciting challenges, and hands-on learning at both our main campus and outdoor education site.

Global Leadership Camp

This overnight camp is for students who are already proficient in English. It provides the same premium activities and excursions as the ESL camp, but replaces the language instruction with leadership development and global competencies, including a Model UN-style conference and a Global Leadership Action Project.

ESL Summer Camps

This overnight camp provides a perfect balance of ESL language instruction and a fun, authentically Canadian experience. Campers receive over 100 hours of ESL instruction in small classroom settings and are provided with a TOEFL Jr. score at the conclusion of camp. 

Pickering College has a rich history of providing exceptional experiential education to its students, and for five years, we’ve brought this same offering to our summer camp programs.

Our traditional Discovery Camps, designed for students entering Kindergarten through Grade 5, offer a dynamic blend of outdoor nature-based activities, sports, games, arts, and STEM challenges. Each week features a unique theme, ensuring that no two weeks are ever the same. Additionally, we offer specialized camps for students in Grades 6 through 10 which focus on STEM and leadership training.

Operating from both our main campus and the picturesque Blue & Silver Farm, our outdoor education site, we are excited to welcome your child to the Hilltop Summer Discovery Programs this summer.

Registration for our 2025 Hilltop Summer Discovery Programs is open!

Please note: These programs are open to both current Pickering College students, and students in the wider community. Minimum numbers must be reached to run programs.
