NATURE<\/strong><\/span><\/h5>\n

Rain or shine we are outside and children must dress appropriately. Being outdoors is essential at Anakkara Summer Camp. The kids spend at least two hours outdoors every day. Working in the garden or sprouting cereals together, making birdhouses or learning the names of the trees and plants in the neighbourhood are some of the activities that children will do outdoors, in addition to lunch and free unstructured time.<\/span><\/p>\n

WEEKLY OUTINGS<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Children from 8 to 12 years old go out twice a week to the surrounding area, in the city of Montreal. We travel by STM to different parks, festivals or museums. Last year we visited the Museum of Fine Arts, The Honourable George O’Reilly Park in Verdun and The Fur Trade at Lachine National Historic Site, among others.
