For a second consecutive year, Collège Boréal has welcomed francophone youth to its Sudbury campus as part of a Skills Ontario summer camp.
Held from July 31 to August 4, the camp is designed for kids entering grades 7 through 9 and aims to develop communication, problem-solving, and teamwork skills via hands-on activities relevant to skilled trades.
The Skills Ontario summer camp program is offered across Ontario in partnership with colleges, industry and community volunteers.
Based on the schedule set by each host institution, participants take part in hands-on counsellor and industry-led workshops in the construction, motive power, services and technology sectors.
“Collège Boréal is proud to contribute to the success of an initiative that helps local francophone youth explore careers in the skilled trades,” said Collège Boréal president Daniel Giroux, in a press release.
“I wish to thank the members of our team who are committed to giving the campers an outstanding experience year after year.”
