Where do camps take place?
All of our day camps take place at The Royal Conservatory, 273 Bloor Street West, in Downtown Toronto. Campers will have opportunities to spend time outside (weather permitting) and often take music related field trips to locations such as the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM), the Edward Johnson Building (University of Toronto Faculty of Music), or jazz performances in Yorkville.
What are the age requirements for camp?
Campers must be a minimum of four (4) years of age as of the start date of camp, and independently (or with little assistance) use the washroom on their own. NOTE: If your camper does not meet these requirements, their enrollment may be cancelled at the discretion of The Oscar Peterson School administration team.
