Instead of traditional lectures, the lessons are designed so that children actively experience the world of the English language. They are communication-oriented, interactive, and involve plenty of group work. Even outside of the learning projects, English is the language of the camp – during activities, excursions, and free time. This way, children learn the language playfully and without any pressure!

FAQ

What services are included in the camp price?

The camp price includes all services of the holiday program, from accommodation with full board to material costs for the learning projects and
Leisure activities and entrance fees for excursions. Your child only needs some pocket money for snacks or postcards. We recommend an amount of 30 euros per week (in small change if possible). Your child can hand in the pocket money to the camp management and receive the desired amount daily.

Liability insurance is completely
sufficient.

cannot attend, please send us
a written cancellation as soon as possible.

a doctor. In this case, you will
of course informed immediately.

How do the younger children communicate in camp?

In class, the older children help the younger ones. The younger children repeat a lot, which gives them a very good feel for the language. During leisure activities, we've even found that communicating in English is often easier for the younger children than for the older ones. They're much less afraid of making mistakes, communicate with their hands and feet, and just start talking. And that's exactly the idea behind our camps.
