P.D. Day Camps (Aka. P.A. Day Camps)

Children enrolled in the elementary school may take advantage of our Professional Development (P.D.) Day Camps. Children spend the day with school friends enjoying a variety of fun and energetic camp-style activities. Working parents particularly enjoy this programme for it's convenience and the peace of mind of knowing their child is spending a happy day in familiar, comfortable surroundings. Children from the community are welcome to join us, as many Professional Activity (P.A.) Days of the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board (OCDSB), and the Ottawa Carleton Catholic District School Board (OCCDSB) coincide with ours.  Please call for more details!

March Break Camp and Summer Camp

March Break and the summer months pose unique problems for working parents in trying to cope with child care needs. Parents at Counterpoint Academy delight in sending their children to our camps, where the children play games, do arts & crafts, picnic in the park and go on outings to venues around town. The focus for camp is always to have have fun with friends and our relaxing atmosphere and engaging, experienced and child-friendly staff make the experience a blast!

These camps are open to everyone, and we invite you to bring your child to experience a great time with us. This is a unique opportunity to explore the benefits of a Counterpoint Academy education, in a relaxed, informal setting.
