Seasonal Daycamps
Our House – Winter, Spring and Summer Daycamps
Offering adventurous, fun and enriching experiences for children 5 – 12 years old
Our House Daycamps have been operating since 1986. We opened our own Facility “Our House” in 2010 at 123 West 16th Ave in Vancouver. As a non-profit childcare centre, Our House, is operated and governed by the Mount Pleasant Community Centre Association.
We are thrilled to offer our popular Daycamp Programs for children 5-12 years old (5 years olds must be attending or have completed kindergarten). Children will visit key attractions and participate in a variety of activities & adventures. Program fees include transportation and admission costs.
