Building the future

The Original C.O.R.E. program is a retreat program developed for and with the Catholic School Board, aimed at the teachings around Laudato Si, Pope Francis’ message on “Care for Our Common Home.” Students learn valuable lessons on how to keep our environment thriving and to always be aware of their impact on their surroundings; all within a classic camp environment.

Since the time of the original, we have developed several other CORE programs to help expand your school’s desire to teach the curriculum.  They all focus on our Catholic faith, but also explore areas such as science, art, team building, and anti-bullying.

Another development that we have made is to change our time format.  Ideally, we love to have kids over three days so that we can really get into our program.  But we also understand that this is not easy from the school’s point of view, therefore we provide the possibility of a single day as well as multiple-day programs.

With fun and interactive activities and games, students will develop their leadership skills, work as part of a team, and become closer to God in His natural playground. 

School Programs

There are many kinds of C.O.R.E. programs, and we are willing to work with you to make one tailored for your school. Although we love 3 day programs because they allow for a good immersion into the topic we are trying to present, we are willing to either expand or shrink our schedules to accommodate your school’s needs. The one thing that we will not change however is our commitment to bring a quality God centred Catholic program for our students.

Praying The Face of Christ

Have each of your students write a traditional Byzantine Icon of Jesus, while learning about him and how to pray. This is a favourite of school art teachers and chaplains alike.
