District-led Spring Break Camps are being offered for a second year in Burnaby Schools, and are expanding to include younger grades, with offerings for Grades 1 to 8.
After the success of the inaugural program for Grades 4 to 8 in the last school year, Spring Break Camps for 2027 will continue to focus on joyful learning, while additionally supporting the needs of families with younger children.
District Principal of Early Learning and Child Care Helena Readman is one of the staff leading the overall project.
After piloting the camps with older grades and receiving really positive feedback from families, we wanted to expand it to primary students as a next step. We know that busy parents are always looking for a fun, safe learning opportunity and we want to support families.”
