Licensed Preschool Camps

LICENSED PRESCHOOL CAMPS 

Explore, discover, and create in a play-based environment where children’s imagination and interests guide their learning experiences!  Play games, take part in age- and developmentally-appropriate activities provided by Early Childhood Educators. Explore and learn with creative and cooperative play opportunities both the indoor and outdoor classrooms.

These week-long licensed preschool camps are run by Rompers Preschool during Spring Break in March and Summer Break in July & August.   Rompers Preschool is a licensed preschool that operates in accordance with the Child Care Licensing Regulations under the Community Care and Assisted Living Act of BC.  The program serves children between 3 and 5 years of age and enrolls up to a maximum of 20 children per classroom, with a minimum two early childhood educators in each class.  

The program is play-based, child-centred and emergent-curriculum influenced.   The Early Childhood Educators are responsive to children’s interests and co-create curriculum with the children. Topics of interests are explored in groups to foster an inviting, engaging, and collaborative social setting, and to create meaningful developmentally appropriate learning experiences.  The depth and length of learning are determined by the children’s sustained interests. Focus is placed on the process of experiences and on fostering healthy social-emotional development. Components of this program include free play time, open ended art, group time, music and movement, sensory activities, STEM, nutritional break, and a large emphasis on outdoor learning.  

Rompers Preschool promotes inclusion. It is our goal to serve the diverse needs of any child in our community.  Children of all abilities may be enrolled provided the centre can meet the needs of the child and their family as well as the safety of all other children enrolled in our program.
