Get ready for a fun-filled summer ‘en français’! Make new friends, try new activities, and experience summer adventures with Camp de Jour of Conseil Communautaire du Grand-Havre!
Founded in 1992 by the Conseil Communautaire du Grand-Havre, Camp de Jour is one of the few French-speaking camps in HRM. Promoting the overall development of the Francophone community, this camp ensures that the children have fun-filled days while still having an opportunity to speak French with their friends. Please note that the camp will take place entirely in French, and a basic understanding of the language is recommended to ensure children can fully enjoy the experience.
CCGH will have two different camp opportunities – Camp de Jour, for children ages 4 to 9, and Camp en Action for youth ages 10 to 13.
Camp de Jour
Mushroom and Turtle Program for ages 4-5 years
These little campers will develop teamwork and imagination through fun activities linked to weekly themes.
The Rabbits, Lions or Sharks Program for ages 6-7 years

The Giraffes and Fireballs Program for ages 8-9 years
