ABOUT US

Summer 2018 will be UCC Summer Camps’ 40th year of operation! We offer 23 different camps under the categories of

Kids, Sports, Arts and Tech, together with our popular Leadership Program. All programs are held at Upper Canada

College with the exception of Golf Camp which utilizes Cardinal Golf Club.

Upper Canada College will launch its summer in-residence program for students aged 10 to 15 in July 2018. There will

be 2 sessions of the 3 week program, one run in July and the second in August. UCC Summer Life is comprised of three

sections: Juniors (ages 10-11), Intermediates (ages 12-13) and Seniors (ages 14-15). Campers in Junior and

Intermediate divisions will choose from a variety of one-week day camps, with the option of selecting three diverse

camp options to experience within the program. Senior campers will participate in UCC’s leadership-in-training program

that incorporates a team-centered approach to initiative, volunteerism and mentorship.

We employ energetic, positive and responsible young people who share our passion for our programs and our love of

kids.
