INTRODUCTION ACS Athens is celebrating 10 years of summer camp action and is once again prepared to provide fun and exciting activities for all the children! Throughout the years, activities and programs were offered so that fun and learning were the focus of everyone involved. We continue with this concept this year by introducing creative and innovative activities that will cater to children with various interests and needs.
2
After reflecting on past years’ experiences, we have altered the programs and activities in such a way as to provide a “best fit” environment for all the children with emphasis on the English language instruction as well as age-appropriate activities: a plethora of classroom activities as well as indoor and outdoor sports activities are available.
The following programs are available: Early Childhood program: 4 – 5 years old (children starting Junior Kindergarten/ Kindergarten in September) Primary Programs: a. Lower Primary 6 years old (children entering 1st grade in September) b. Upper Primary 7 years old (children entering 2nd grade in September)
For the Early Childhood and Primary Programs, the daily program consists of predetermined activities; for the remaining programs (Kids, Juniors and Teens) participants will be able to choose among a variety of activities, thus making up their own daily schedule.
Kids’ Program: 8-9 years old (children entering 3rd & 4th grade in September)
Our staff consists of experienced instructors, each in their specific areas of expertise, and they are assisted by our High School student volunteers. All of them promise to provide a fun experience for all the children!
Juniors’ program: 10 - 11 years old (children entering 5th & 6th grade in September) Teens’ program: 12 - 14 years old (children entering 7th & 8th grade in September)
