Pros

- Kids were fun to work with

Cons

- Head office does not provide enough supplies to complete activities - Head office says that they are there to support you but when there are issues, they do nothing (ex. a child choked another child and head office refused to remove that child from the camp) - Does not pay enough for what is expected of you (you are expected to be a teacher with a minimum wage paycheck) - Activities are not age appropriate so you are required to basically do it for them - Activities are not appropriately timed so activities finish before the period is over - There is not enough training for the senior staff or the camp counsellors

Thank you for your feedback. We take safety very seriously and enforce a strict no-violence policy—any camper displaying violent behaviour is immediately removed from camp. We regularly review our processes to improve supply management, align activities more closely with age groups, and ensure they are appropriately timed. We also adjusted our training training program to better prepare staff. We appreciate your insights, which help us create a better experience for both staff and campers.

We value your input about the activities and understand that kids learn in different ways. We consistently work to offer more variety and hands-on experiences to keep everyone engaged. Your suggestion about creating more creative and interactive activities is noted and will be considered for future programming.
