Camp Behaviour Policy • Special Needs & Health Concerns

It is our goal for your child(ren) and other children attending Place des Arts’ camps to have the best experience possible in a warm and welcoming environment. To promote consistent expectations around behaviour among students, we use the “FISH” policy. We recommend reviewing the FISH policy with your child(ren) prior to camp.

= Follow instructions

= Include everyone

= Show respect

= Help each other

If any child has difficulty meeting our behaviour expectations, we will follow our four-step plan: 1. Verbal warning: Our first response will be a verbal intervention to help the child understand the impact their behaviour is having on others. P L AC E D ES ARTS 20 2 2 S UM M ER G UI D E

2. Time out: If the behaviour continues, the child will be removed from the program for a time out. The child’s parent/guardian will be notified of the incident and will be asked to review the behaviour policy with their child. 3. Parent pick up: If the behaviour still continues, the parent/guardian will be contacted and asked to pick their child immediately with the child missing the rest of the day. 4. Student dismissal: A student may be dismissed if their behaviour precludes safe and effective participation in our programs. Dismissal will take effect only after a consultation occurs between the parent/guardian, child, program staff and Place des Arts’ Executive Director. No refunds will be given. Note: Place des Arts has the discretion to dismiss a student immediately under appropriate circumstances.

Support Needs and Health Concerns Place des Arts is committed to making our arts programming accessible to all. Due to limited classroom capacity, some restrictions may apply. • Prior to the start of your child(ren)’s camp, please advise Place des Arts staff of any health concerns, including food allergies or support needs, that your child(ren) may have. This helps to ensure a successful experience. Please update the Medical Alert section on your child(ren)’s account with any relevant information or email us at summercamp@placedesarts.ca. • Parents/guardians are responsible for administering any medications required by the student. Although our staff members have First Aid training, they cannot administer medication, except for an EpiPen, in the case of an emergency. Please email us at summercamp@ placedesarts.ca if your child has an EpiPen.

Summer Fun! Half Day Camp Overview

Half Day Camps for 5-7 and 8-12 years

Half Day Camp Drop-off Procedure

Half Day Camp Pick-up Procedure

Each camp for 5-7 and 8-12 years includes a combination of two 1-hour classes in the visual and/or performing arts. We recommend choosing one or two camps per week based on the interests and age range of your child(ren).

Camp drop-off occurs between 9:35-9:50am for morning camps and between 12:30-12:45pm for afternoon camps. Families must enter through the main entrance on Brunette Avenue (by the Spirit Bear sculpture).

Camp pick-up occurs between 12:00-12:10pm for morning camps and between 2:55-3:05pm for afternoon camps on Place des Arts’ main floor. A staff member will greet families and direct them to the appropriate classroom for pick-up.

Along with the teaching artist who will instruct the class, most classes will also have a volunteer and student support staff. A 10-minute break occurs after the first class, and a volunteer or staff member will transition your child to the next classroom. All supplies are provided.

There is limited parking available at Place des Arts and we expect drop-off times to be busy. This summer, the underground parkade is unavailable. Please plan accordingly and find more information about parking on page 31.

For students registered for both the morning and afternoon half day camps, there is the option to register for Camp Care from 12:00-12:45pm.

Half Day Camps for 11-14 years Camps for 11-14 years are offered in visual arts and are 3 hours long. All supplies are provided.

What to Bring: • We recommend wearing closed-toed shoes and to dress for mess and movement. • Please do not bring any unnecessary belongings to camp (eg. toys, games, money, etc.). • On the last day of camp, please bring a box or large bag labelled with your child’s name to bring artwork home in.

Half Day Camp Care (12:00-12:45pm) For students ages 5-12 registered for both the morning and afternoon Half Day Camps, who will be staying on site between camps must register for Camp Care from 12:00-12:45pm for an additional cost ($35 per week or $28 for week 5). Alternatively, families are welcome to pick-up their child(ren) during this time. For safety and staffing reasons, pre-registration is required. Please bring a nut-free lunch and water bottle each day. Camp Care will be held outside, weather permitting. See the camp grids on pages 7-18 for details.
