For our Leaside location (in Leaside United Church’s gymnasium, 822 Millwood Road), please use the NE entrance at Field Ave & McRae Drive. For the East End location, enter via the main double doors at The Redwood (1300 Gerrard Street East).

Parents are required to sign children in and out of camp. If you wish to give your child permission to sign themselves in and/or out, please note in the “Comments” section of the registration form or send Jen an email (jen@torontocircuscentre.com).

Camp hours are 9am-4pm. Extended hours are 8-9am and/or 4-5pm available on request.

Camp is drop off only – no parents at camp. We do have a parents’ show at 4pm on Friday where kids will demonstrate what they have learned!

Not at all – everyone is welcome! We are able to adjust each child’s direction to their individual skill level. New students can learn the basics and more experienced junior acrobats can add onto their circus repertoire.

We do encourage kids to try everything. There is so much variety in circus that every child will find something they are good at and can focus on.

TCC specialty coaches are professional circus artists from all disciplines of circus arts that share a joy of working with children and a passion for training up-and-coming circus stars!

There’s something for every junior circus star-in-training! Aerial trapeze, hoop, rope and silks as well as juggling, floor and partner acrobatics and clowning. Campers and coaches work toward building a show that parents are invited to @ 4pm on Friday!

4 ½ – 13 years. Kids need to be turning 5 at some time during 2020 to qualify.

All kids are in the same gymnasium. Children are grouped with peers closest to their age.

For sure! Just put that in the ‘Comments’ section of the registration form

We do a lot of circus! Additionally, we also do a craft each day, have two snack breaks and a lunch break, and may go outside for games, weather permitting.

Long pants (leggings or jogging) and a tighter/more-fitted top. Long hair should be tied back. Campers should not wear jewelry.

Labelled, refillable water bottle.

More food than kids take to school – we are quite physical. Kids get two snack breaks and a lunch break.

NUT FREE food only.

Phones, tablets, and other such devices brought to camp will be stored by coaches and returned at the end of the day. (It is helpful to label these with your child’s name, if they will be bringing them to camp.)

4pm on Friday! The show is free; friends and family are welcome.

Absolutely! The structure repeats, but the tricks we can teach them are endless.

Online registrations are due by 6pm the Friday before camp week starts. You can register after that cut-off, but please contact us directly to ensure space availability. Earlier is better as weeks may fill up fast!

Full payment is required to secure your child’s spot at camp.

Yes. If a student requests to register for a full camp on a waitlist, parent(s) will be notified when and if space becomes available. No waitlist deposit is required. We release spots in the order waitlist applications are received.

Should you decide to voluntarily withdraw more than 14 days prior to the start date of camp, all but a non-refundable deposit/admin fee of $50 may be refunded. If cancelling 7-14 days before camp begins, a $100 deposit/admin fee applies. Any cancellations made less than 7 days before start date are not eligible for a refund without doctor‘s note. If you need to switch to a different week, we will do our best to accommodate that, provided there is space available.

In case of participation being cancelled for medical reasons, and when accompanied by a doctor’s note, pro-rated refund of all missed whole days will be processed minus a $25 admin fee. Cancellations during camp week for non-medical reasons will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis for refund eligibility.

(No refund shall be provided in the event of dismissal for breach of the Conduct Policy, as lain out on the online registration form.)
