Grade 1 and 2 Literacy & Numeracy Camps
Welcome to Black Gold’s Teacher-Recommended Summer Boost Camps!
Looking for a fun way to help your child feel ready and excited for the next school year? Our Teacher-Recommended English Literacy and Numeracy Camps are designed for students who have just completed Grade 1 or 2.
Our focus will be to build confidence and provide practical skills in a fun and supportive setting. Our team has created a space where students are encouraged to experiment, ask questions, and discover that learning can be an engaging adventure!
How to Join: These camps are available by classroom teacher referral. Usually, your child’s teacher will reach out if they feel this camp would be a great fit for your child’s growth. If you are interested in a referral and have not been contacted, feel free to contact your child’s teacher to discuss whether this program is the right next step!
We will not be accepting any out-of-district students.
Summer English Literacy Camp
This camp helps students build their English literacy skills. Through creative activities and literacy games, we will explore letter sounds, build vocabulary, and practice early reading skills in a way that feels like play. Our goal is for students to head into their next grade feeling capable and ready to try new things with a big smile and a little extra confidence!

Summer Numeracy Camp
This camp is all about building number sense through hands-on discovery. We’ll take the mystery out of numbers up to 100—practicing counting, comparing, and basic addition/subtraction to 20—using interactive games that show math is just an exciting challenge to solve! Our goal is for every student to leave with a 'can-do' attitude, feeling ready to jump into new math challenges with a smile and a toolkit full of fun strategies!
