Overview

Our Programme

Fun packed and educational for 7 – 15 year olds

By qualified and experienced teachers

All Summer Campers participate in the full daily programme; they are grouped according to age and move together from one activity to another. Our well qualified and experienced teachers and group leaders offer girls a fun-packed and educational programme which varies throughout the four-week period, balancing creative, artistic and sporting skills.

On three afternoons each week, Summer Camp girls have fun joining the International Summer School girls by attending their chosen academy.  In weeks 3 and 4, if summer camp girls choose our ‘Performing Arts Academy’ they will have the opportunity to perform in a show in the performing arts centre to which parents are invited. We also offer special days with a programme of arts, crafts, photography, floristry and cookery or dance, drama and music.

What the parents say

We were extremely grateful to have the opportunity to have both girls attend summer camp this year. I can’t say enough how much they loved every minute. There is so much to do and learn. Couldn’t be more impressed!

Julia

This is my first experience of the Summer Camp and I am amazed at how professionally organised it has been. Florence has so much enthusiasm in the morning and when I pick her up.

Michelle

Great fun and with a good variety of activities and helpful and friendly staff. I would recommend it to other parents because my daughter had such a great week.

Mother of Ella

The flexibility of combining the day camp with occasional weekly boarding have enriched her experience at summer camp and been invaluable as a taster for boarding school life.

Cathy

I can’t believe what you achieve with these girls every week and every year, all the things they bring home, the shows and the exhibitions – amazing!
