Maybe it’s because being back in the swing of things has caused the weeks to fly by, but it really feels like March is creeping up fast. It’s hard to believe that March break is less than a month away (reminder: It’s March 13 to March 17 for public and Catholic boards in Toronto and the rest of the GTA). If March break is creeping up on your family and you’ve suddenly found yourself scrambling for a spring break camp, don’t worry. While yes, many camps are already booked up, we’ve managed to round up a few that, as of the very end of February, still have spaces. But of course, there is no guarantee that those spots will last so if you see something that’s a great match for your child, jump on it!
Please note that unless otherwise noted, the prices listed for March Break camps in Toronto are for a week of full-day camp and those prices don’t take into account taxes, extended care or any additional fees or sibling or any other potential discounts.
