Summer and Winter Camps
French Solutions' summer and winter camps are designed to engage students (5 to 12 years old) in a full week of fun in French. Students from all over York Region and the GTA come to our Markham camp! Every day, campers will be participate in many activities such as: arts and crafts, dance, sports, drama, songs and kinesthetic, baking and much more! On Fridays, campers will go on a field trip to interesting locations within York Region (summer camp only), and lunch will be provided. Parents will take comfort in knowing their children are in a safe place, while campers are busy building friendships and long lasting memories!
French Solutions has tailored 3 separate camp programs in order to meet the Beginner French, Core French and the French Immersion/Francophone groups’ individual needs.

Beginner French Program (Sk – grade 3):
During this program, campers will be introduced to the basics of French. Particular attention will be paid to developing campers’ comprehension and communication skills. The use of gestures and demonstration will help them acquire and sustain sufficient vocabulary to communicate in simple sentences. By taking part in these activities, and with positive reinforcement from the instructors, campers will have an enjoyable camp experience and, at the same time, develop a strong interest for the French language. To ensure progress, it is highly recommended that campers register for the two weeks.
Core French Program (grade 1 to grade 6):
This program is designed for students who have already studied French for a minimum of 2 – 3 years. It will allow campers to demonstrate their knowledge through activities such as French games, plays, communication circles and much more. These activities will encourage children to take risk and not feel embarrassed while conversing in French. By firstly introducing concepts in French and then translating into English, campers will begin to develop an ear for the language. They will see firsthand that French has no borders, and expands far beyond the classroom. This is the perfect boost of confidence your child needs before his or her upcoming school year!
Francophone & French Immersion Program (grade 1 to grade 6):
During this program, campers will be submersed in a fully French environment outside the classroom setting. They will take part in diverse activities designed to stimulate conversations, enhancing opportunities to expand and enrich their oral skills. This will help students maintain their French during the summer months, and ensure that they commence the school year on the right foot. By coming to camp and sharing their experiences, campers will soon realize that they are not alone in their pursuit of bilingualism!
