Class size is limited to 20 students with a ratio of experienced counsellors : students of 1:6. This ensures excellence in quality of instruction and safety.
The camp is held each summer at Sheridan College campus in Oakville, where space is rented to the camp.

In the Film-making session, kids will learn how to handle a camcorder, focusing on the specifics of different camera shots, angles and lighting. The topic of story-boarding will be covered. A computer-editing program will allow kids to import video and edit their movie using different special effects, transitions, audio and titles. A brief introduction will be given to Apple's GarageBand ™.

In the Stop Motion Animation program, kids will design sets and characters, and create storyboards. They will learn to use computer editing and music-making softwares, cameras and voice-overs to complete original animated movies.

In the digital Storytelling program, kids learn about the art of telling their 'story' using multi-media technology. Digital storytelling is like an autobiographical 'mini movie' which kids will create and edit - using computer software, digital camcorders & cameras, and still photographs. Kids will use voice overs, digital film and music editing software to create a digital story that reflects their special and unique life.


In the digiKidz LEGO® Robotics program, kids build and program a robot to execute a number of tasks. They teach their robot to navigate a maze, conquer challenges, and be the first team to complete assigned missions. A series of challenges will hone their collaboration, programming, inventiveness, and strategic skills.

For all programs, while working as a team- member on group projects, children will take on different roles and responsibilities based on their interest, skill level and talents.

At the end of the program, each child receives a DVD of the week's highlights and a certificate of completion. All necessary equipment is supplied by digiKidz®. Students will be asked to bring in small props/toys as part of their projects during the course of the session.
