Winter Warmer Festival
Feb 24 – Mar 2
Some Theatre Fun for Everyone
Let’s Play Daycamp for Kids
Feb 24: 10:00AM – 3:30PM
At the Stephenville ACC
Since many kids have a day off school we thought we would launch our WINTER WARMER FESTIVAL with a one day camp for kids!
This day of camp will be at the Arts and Culture Centre.
It will run from 10-3:30pm, with drop off at 9:45-10am and pick up 3:30-4pm.
This is aimed at students age 7-12 years old.
The day will consist of:
-
Group games
-
Theatre activites such as improv games, character development, learning a short song and dance and other creative play
-
We will have two short breaks and a lunch break. Note that food is NOT provided.
-
There is no official presentation at the end of the camp; this is a skills and creativity focused day camp
The suggested fee for this camp is $30 a student. However we will have a “pay what you choose option” allowing you to pay anything between $15-40. Fees go towards paying staff, admin and getting some basic supplies. Costs are offset by our generous donors, sponsors and funders.
