Camp Bursary Program

BURSARY APPLICATIONS ARE DUE ON MAY 1ST, 2026

Science Quest aims to ensure that financial barriers do not prevent any child from accessing our programming. As such, we have a bursary program in place for families who find it not financially feasible to send their children to camp.  

To Apply for a Bursary:

  • Register and pay the deposit in full on CampBrain.
  • Upon registration, complete the Bursary Application Form with all of the requested information. Bursary coverage is upon request for each camp session in the registration.
  • Your application will be reviewed, and the allocated bursary amount will be applied to your account. 

Please contact [email protected] with any questions or concerns.

Accessibility

At Science Quest, we strive to make our camps accessible to campers of all abilities. Our buildings are wheelchair accessible, with access to elevators and ramps.

All instructors at Science Quest are trained in accessibility in addition to Inclusion Instructors, who have additional training and knowledge with regards to working with children with exceptionalities.

Science Quest has a designated Quiet Space (sensory room) for any child that may need or want some time away from camp activities throughout the day. This quiet room has different sensory toys and games available for its visitors to use.

We welcome all children of different needs and abilities to Science Quest, but please note that we do not guarantee 1 on 1 support for campers. If your camper has a support worker they are welcome to attend camp at no extra charge, please contact [email protected].
