All the camps have a 1- to 4-week period of activity, except for the STEM camp, which lasts only the two first weeks.

With that being said, we would like to give an overview of some of them, in case people see something that grabs their attention.

Nursery Camp: Designed for 3- and 4-year-olds, their children's camp offers weekly themed activities led by native English-speaking instructors.

From creative writing to writing in a journalistic style, the course aims to develop students' imaginations and critical thinking, while at the same time offering activities aimed at improving their oral abilities so that they can become confident speakers. All activities are carried out using games and fun projects.
Sports: Tailored for 9- to 15- year olds, the sports camp offers the widest range of sports activities, ranging from football, basketball, tennis, rugby, cricket, netball, dodge-ball and volleyball to waterpolo and swimming in their new semi-olympic covered pool.

The curriculum includes arithmetic, maths practice, problem-solving activities, creative thinking and the development of metacognitive thinking abilities.
