Summer Camps for
Children & Teens

The ultimate language experience is available through our wildly popular Summer Camps programme. For 2-11 weeks, students have the opportunity to experience a foreign language in its 'natural' surrounding: a country where it is the native tongue. This form of language immersion speeds up the learning process, all the while affording students the chance of a lifetime to become familiar with new places and people.

This year we invite your child to join us for an exciting trip to France, England, Spain, Switzerland, Canada or China where he/she can discover the beauty and culture of the country; practise the local language; play exciting sports; and make many new friends from around the world.

With small classes of an average of 8-12 students, your child will have plenty of opportunities to practise and communicate in the target language, thus providing him/her with the ideal learning environment.

After interesting lessons in the mornings that engage the mind, your child will be given the chance to experience outdoor events that will unlock his/her physical spirit. Every afternoon, your child will enjoy a full programme of supervised sports, arts, and leisure activities, all held in the target language, under the constant supervision and expert guidance of professionals.

Accommodation & Welfare

Accommodation is on a full board basis with three main meals a day. The bedrooms are bright, well equipped, comfortable and clean. So far as possible, your child will be placed with other children of a similar age group but of a different nationality, thus encouraging full linguistic immersion. Boys and girls sleep in separate sections or floors of the residential house, or different buildings, with staff supervision around the clock. A resident nurse is on site 24 hours a day to give immediate medical care if needed.

Homestay accommodation with a carefully selected host family is also available.

All in all, through the subtle blend of complete cultural immersion, quality language instruction, and stimulating activities, in an environment that creates fond memories and forges long-lasting friendships, your child will enhance not only his/her language abilities but also his/her global perspective.

It is a unique opportunity not to be missed!
