Instructor giving student a high five

The same great Camp Awesome, now throughout the school year!

Camp Awesome Day Camps are offered during Lord Selkirk School Division PD and In-Service Days. These camps are for children ages 5-11 years, aimed at offering Manitoba Education Based-Curriculum outcomes in a nature-based and play learning environment, all while enjoying the fun of camp. 

Camp Awesome staff will facilitate customized activities that foster connections to nature, movement, community, play and to each other, with the goal of inspiring land stewardship and holistic learning.

At Camp Awesome we aim to bring awareness of self in relationship to nature and the world around us, provide opportunities that stimulate the development of each camper’s leadership skills and, self-confidence and help each camper appreciate the natural surroundings and take an active role in the stewardship of our environment.
