English Summer Camp student at class

Summer is the ideal time for your child to enjoy their hobbies and boost their level of English. Our English Summer Camps are the best option for children to learn English whilst having fun and discovering new interests.

SUMMER PLUS - your summer camp in English!

Their best ever summer in English! Summer Plus is a new approach to English summer camps in Spain. The programme is designed by experts to activate children’s learning through fun activities. Summer Plus courses are based on projects such as Minecraft Education, cookery, handicrafts, physical activities and debates, with content adapted to each age group. In addition we'll have Speak Out activities for Secondary and Bachillerato students, to help them gain the confidence they need to speak English with total fluency.

Your children will make tangible progress, learning to express themselves with confidence in English and preparing them for life in the 21st century.

Early Years (4 to 5 years)

A HAPPY EXPERIENCE LEARNING ENGLISH

For early years students our methodology is based on stories and storytelling, songs, games, and even science projects, handicrafts, physical activity, music and cookery.

Our goal is to create a safe and happy environment so that children can learn and progress naturally with their English.

Primary (6 to 11 years)

Taking the lead in their own learning

Our students make progress with their English while having fun, new experiences. Through a programme consisting of carefully planned linguistic objectives, we ensure that our students assimilate English naturally while enjoying activities in all the following areas:

AREAS

PRIMARY PLUS - Students will follow the methodology and materials of our famous Primary Plus programme, helping them to improve their level of English in a tangible way. The course programme is based on magazines created by our experts at the British Council, focussed on specific content suitable for this age group. It consists of project-based activities so students can put their English into practice and gain confidence in the language. Additionally our learning hub provides students with online content which they can work on at home.
IMAGINE – let their imagination run riot with reading and storytelling to introduce and acquire new vocabulary and grammar. 
INVENT – students aged 8 or over will work on enjoyable programming projects in Minecraft Education.
CREATE – drama helps our students express themselves with confidence in English; handicrafts develop their creativity.
